Shortly after the conclusion of this year’s typically insane 24 Hours of Le Mans, we brought you a nerdy look at how the race played out in the four classes, mentioning Corvette Racing’s blow-for-blow battle with the AF Corse Ferrari 458 in the GTE-Pro class. It was a gusty performance for the Corvette crew, ending their longest drought at Le Mans to take home their eight class win in 16 years. Numbers are, of course, a lot of fun for a geek like me, but Pratt & Miller, the race shop who prep the C7.Rs for Le Mans and the Tudor United SportsCar Championship, have put together a beautifully shot and dramatic portrait of the shop’s 2015 triumph at the Circuit de la Sarthe.
