There are few races as iconic as the Le Mans 24 Hours; in Europe, it's arguably the race to spectate.

This year’s a biggie, too. The 84th running of Le Mans sees Porsche hoping to defend its title and gun for an 18th overall race win, and qualifying has seen its cars take the top two slots. They are separated from the pair of Audi stablemates by Toyota’s two TS040 Hybrids.

Perhaps the biggest talking point comes courtesy of Ford, though. Fifty years after the Ford GT40 made history – overturning Ferrari’s dominance with its first of four consecutive Le Mans wins – the modern-day GT is taking on Ferrari (as well as Aston Martin and Porsche) in the GTE Pro category. So not the overall win, but the win by the cars which most resemble stuff we can actually buy.

After mixed results in the rounds leading up to Le Mans, the four Ford GTs have all qualified in their class top five, with two of them taking the top slots. But 24 hours is a long old time, and there’ll be heaps of drama separating the GTs from the perfect climax of Ford’s plot.

If you want to keep abreast of the action, but without being bogged down in a whole heap of mathematics and tyre strategy chat, then you’re in the right place. Throughout the race we’ll be adding picture galleries that sum up not just the exciting action of Le Mans, but the irresistible atmosphere that surrounds it. Pull the screen closer and you might just smell burnt sausages from the nearby barbeques.
