24 Heures Moto 2018 - 100 days to go!

Competitors and organisers alike have a common aim for the 40 years of the 24 Heures Motos - make it a big festive occasion for everybody by celebrating the motorbike both on the track and inside the Bugatti circuit.  

In 2017, David Checa, Mike Di Meglio and Niccolo Canepa won the race on their no. 94 Yamaha entered by GMT94 in front of 74 500 spectators and went on to clinch the world title at the end of the season. The Japanese manufacturer has renewed its confidence in the same trio for 2018, and Christophe Guyot’s men will arrive in the Sarthe as favourites to try and retain their crown. However, they know that as is the case every year in the 24 Heures Motos, there will be a no-holds battle in the EWC as well as in the all other categories, and the way the race plays out is never written in advance. 

The Bol d’Or in September kicked off the 2017-2018 FIM WEC season. The winter break until the 24 Hours Motos has given the teams the opportunity to prepare their bikes in numerous test sessions that helped to validate and finalise the setups. The riders have got down to honing their physical fitness and the composition of the driver line-ups is falling into place.  

60 crews are expected to line up on the grid. Before that they can find their marks on the Bugatti circuit in the Pre-tests on 3-4 April.  

In addition to the sporting aspect, the 24 Heures-Motos event is also a fantastic motorbike festival. Once again the fans will be able to enjoy the traditional mechanical show and the fun fair; and for the 40th anniversary of the race numerous activities and surprises are being prepared.  

So no time to lose to be part of this legendary celebration. Only four days left to take advantage of the Promo price. Until Sunday 14th January the price of the 4-day general enclosure tickets (Friday to Sunday) is 56 €, then on pre-sale at 59.50 € to 4th March and after that 70 € full price. For the ACO members the price is 52.50 €.
