Will anyone else be following the Bang & Olufsen sponsored prototype car racing at the 24 hours of Le Mans this weekend? I wish I could be there in person this year, but it was just not in the cards... I was there in 2013 working with the Dodge Viper team and it was one of the best events I have ever been a part of.

25 years as a professional hitch-hiker... poor fella
As for the B&O on the car, it's nice to see the B&O name out there! Wonder how much it cost though... Could it have been better spent on an advert in the Sunday Times, or GQ, or something with a wider and specifically more target audience?
I am pretty sure it is B&O. There is no mention of Automotive... I know a couple people on the team, I will find out.
Jackie Chan Racing.
Gets sponsorship by Sparkle Roll who then slap B&O over the motor to improve visibility of Sparkle roll and their stake in B&O
Probably cost B&O nothing apart from a few Play toys sprinkled around the Pits and hospitality suites.
Great pictures Beotex! Makes me wish I was back there! I hope you have a great time. If you see David Cheng, one of the drivers of the B&O cars, tell him Andrew Tucker says hello! We worked together for a few years. Really great guy.
we tend to forget there is more to design than designing.
Tucker:... it was one of the best events I have ever been a part of.
I have the same to say about the Le Mans Classic races !
Is that a PLAY-mobil ?
There is a tv - and there is a BV

Now with a shot at overall p1! Crazy race...
I am deeply disappointed here.
B&O should have come up with an electric car, respectful of environment and silent. And that thing here is just uuugly.
Missed then!

Hehe just checking in Forum to see if some of you B&O nerds should be petrol heads as well, and indeed so :)
Great victory by the B&O LMP2 car, great exposure for some 250.000 spectators and millions of viewers! Fantastic race allthough I missed a dane or two at the top of the GTPro class..

Double good 24hrs for me with Aston eeking out the GTE Pro class despite 3 Astons catching a flat mid-circuit (Pro and Am). Not bad for a 13 year old car in its final year at LM.

This year's Le Mans, as always, was a fantastic race. I am very happy for David Cheng and the rest of the crew for the 2 B&O cars. They did an incredible job in a very unforgiving race. Already counting down the days until next year!
