My proudest moments are beating Ferrari for the World Championship in 1965, and working with Ford to win Le Mans in 1966 and 1967.

Carroll Shelby

'Le Mans' is the only racing movie that is totally realistic.

Jenson Button

Winning Le Mans didn't change my career, but it definitely gave me a boost.

Nico Hulkenberg

I'm definitely more one of the drivers who would want to do Daytona, Le Mans, and the Indy 500.

Lando Norris

I've done the 24-hour race in Le Mans, which was a dream come true.

Chris Hoy

It's an amazing experience for me, coming from the F1 environment and to see a race like Le Mans.

Nico Hulkenberg

When I arrived at Le Mans nobody knew me, I had to work hard to get into the first-team.

Gervinho

I have been waiting to win a world championship since 1985. I've had three cracks at a world title - in karting, I finished third at Le Mans; that hurt because it was very close, but then in Formula One there wasn't really an opportunity to finally crack it, so it's third time lucky.

Allan McNish

All the support and opportunity started and then Le Mans became the pipe dream, the thing to aim for, the end of the rainbow.

Chris Hoy

I like to be in Le Mans during the summer, of course because I have my family over there but also because the nature is just beautiful at this time and it's in the country. There is a relaxing spirit in this place.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga

I grew up in a village just outside Le Mans, so nature and fresh air are among the things I love the most.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga

I drove long distances like the 24 hours of Le Mans for years. But even this racing is now over. I retired.

Jacky Ickx

I never had any financial support or sponsors, and so I always had to, at every level, prove myself the hard way. I was five years in Japan before I got my debut at Le Mans. And I think this is a humble way to get through as a racing driver.

Le Mans is such a great race because you can never do anything alone. You have to work as a team member. And being a team member makes you a better person.

Tom Kristensen

I'm writing kid's books, I'm doing endurance racing with Le Mans and designing bikes. I've also got my own range of cycling clothing.
