History:
Formula One is the highest class of single-seat auto racing. The “formula” refers to a set of rules to which all participants’ cars must conform. These cars are the fastest road course racing cars in the world, given their ability to achieve very high cornering speeds with the help of aerodynamics and downforce. Formula One cars race at speeds up to 230 mph.
Since 1923, the city of Le Mans, France, has hosted the annual internationally famous 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance sports car race.
Le Mans is a 1971 film depicting a fictional 24 Hours of Le Mans auto race starring Steve McQueen featuring actual race footage.
