Sir Chris Hoy realises a childhood dream at Le Mans

LM P3 - 01/06/2015

Since declaring his intention to race in the Le Mans 24 Hours in 2016, Sir Chris Hoy has been an A-grade student of Nissan’s driver development programme. With the inclusion of the LM P3 cars at the official Le Mans Test Day, Hoy got his first taste of the Le Mans circuit today.

“That was everything I expected it to be and more,” said Hoy. “I spent the first two laps thinking ‘Wow, I’m on the Mulsanne Straight’ and ‘Wow, I’m going through the Porsche Curves’, but then I got down to business and started to work on getting my times down. During the dry running I was just over four seconds off my team-mate but I was pleased with that as I wasn’t pushing, just learning the track. It was good to get some wet running too as now I know where the really slippery parts of the track are. The track is amazing with so many incredible corners. It is very exciting to drive here.”
