Episode 11: The 24 Hours of Le Mans - Triomphe et Désastre

The history of Le Mans is the history of motor racing. From hosting the first Grand Prix in 1906 to creating the world’s greatest endurance race in 1923, the 24 Hours of Le Mans has been run 92 times over 102 years - and in that time, it has showcased the cutting edge of automotive technology, the sport’s most iconic drivers, and seen some of the greatest races ever.

But it has also borne witness to tragedy.

In this episode, Jack and Ben delve into the unique and dramatic history of this legendary event - highlighting not only its triumphs, but also the oversights, complacency, and closed-mindedness that led to the 1955 Le Mans disaster, when a horrific accident claimed the lives of at least 84 people. It remains the deadliest incident in the history of motorsport - and it was entirely avoidable.

Along the way, they explore the legends of Jacky Ickx, Jaguar, Mercedes, Ferrari, Ford, and a proud tradition of female participation. Because to win at Le Mans, a driver must be fit, focused, fearless - and ready to take on a circuit that has given so much to the sport, but taken just as much in return.
