«24 Hours of Le Mans» Organizer marathon Pierre Fillon said that this year the start of the race will give the American actor Brad Pitt.
His responsibilities will include one action — a wave of the French flag before the first car will cross the starting line after the installation lap. The race itself will be held from 18 to 19 June.
In the race a record number of cars will take part — exactly 60, which is a repetition of the 1955 record!
By the way, last year the race start of the race gave the great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford and Ford's current executive chairman Bill Ford. A year earlier, the flag held racer «Formula 1» Alonso.
