Le Mans 2023: Qualifying results from the iconic 24-hour race
Henry Valantine 19 hours ago
Le Mans 24 Hours testing with Jenson Button. June Le Mans 2023.

Qualifying has now concluded for Le Mans 2023, with the fastest eight
cars in each class having booked their places in Hyperpole on Thursday.

A huge 62-car field took to the Circuit de la Sarthe for the qualifying
hour on Wednesday evening, with multiple red flags having halted the
drivers as offs throughout the classes punctuated an intriguing session throughout the field.

All three classes were phenomenally close throughout, all the more
impressive considering the enormous length of the Circuit de la Sarthe
as a track, and it was Ferrari that showed real pace on their first Le
Mans start in the Hypercar class.

For those looking out for 2009 F1 World Champion Jenson Button in his
Garage 56 entry, he is not attached to a class with the #24 NASCAR entry
being classed as an ‘Innovative Car’, and team-mate Mike Rockenfeller
went several seconds faster than the whole LMGTE Am field in the car’s
most likely challengers.

The positions 9th and below in class are now set on the grid for the
start of the race on Saturday afternoon, and the top eight will now
advance for the 30-minute Hyperpole session on Thursday evening, which
gets underway
