The Technical and Administrative Checks, commonly known as “Scrutineering”, kick off a great week of activities at Le Mans.
Place de la République in Le Mans city centre is where it’s all happening as the 60 cars that will line up for the race are presented for mandatory checks. The 22 scheduled on Sunday 12 June, from 14h30 to 19h00, include the FIA WEC’s Porsche Team with its two Porsche 919 Hybrids, Toyota with its pair of TS050 HYBRIDS, the four works Ford GTs and the two Alpines.
Scrutineers appointed by the race director will carry out a range of checks to ensure that every component of the cars complies with the regulations. The drivers’ licences and equipment are examined too. Scrutineering is a tremendous opportunity to exchange a few words with the drivers set to take part in the world’s greatest race and see the cars at close quarters.
