GT1 cars dropped from Le Mans

Updated

The GT1 class at Le Mans will run for the final time this year under new regulations announced by the race organisers today.

The class, which has witnessed stunning battles in recent years between Corvette (above) and Aston Martin, both of which are racing this year along with three Ford GTs, a Lamborghini Murcielago and Saleen S7R, will disappear as the ACO creates a new category called GT Endurance.
