Barriers on the inside of the final right - hand corner were dismantled and relocated further away from the circuit, allowing for the construction of paved run - off area and escape roads. This same alteration had been done on the barriers outside the corner the previous year. This modification re-profiled the corner slightly, shortening the lap distance by 3 metres ( 9.8 ft ). The ACO also constructed a new starting line gantry 145 metres ( 476 ft ) further up the main straight to allow more cars on the straight at the start of the race. The finish line and all timing beacons however remain at the previous starting line at the exit of the Ford Chicane.

( June 2018 ) Coming into the race, Toyota was the heavy favorite for the overall victory due to its hybrid power capabilities in the LMP1 category, amongst its mostly new non-hybrid / privateer rival teams of Rebellion Racing, SMP Racing, DragonSpeed, ByKolles Racing Team, and CEFC TRSM Racing. The recent departure of Porsche from the LMP1 category in 2017 and Audi in 2016, Toyota was the only hybrid prototype, for the 2018 -- 19 FIA World Endurance Championship. Consequently, this merged the hybrids and non-hybrids / privateers together in the LMP1 class. The race featured the debut of Ginetta 's chassis raced by CEFC TRSM Racing with a Mecachrome engine. It joined the Rebellion R13, raced by Rebellion Racing, BR Engineering BR1, raced by SMP Racing and DragonSpeed ( making their debut in LMP1 ), and the CLM P1 / 01, raced by ByKolles Racing. Fernando Alonso also made his first 24 Hours of Le Mans race start, racing with Toyota. Toyota led throughout all the test, practice, and qualifying sessions. Its time in qualifying of a 3 : 15.377 was good enough to place first on the grid, well ahead of the other cars in its class. Its sister car took 2nd overall followed by Rebellion Racing on the grid. The # 32 LMP2 car from United Autosports, which qualified in 24th place LMP2 was the biggest class in the race with 20 entries, IDEC Sport claimed the top spot after claiming the fastest time in qualifying of a 3 : 24.842 and 10th overall followed closely behind by the DragonSpeed, G - Drive Racing, and TDS Racing, all in Oreca 07 's in 11th, 12th, and 13th places overall off the grid. Jackie Chan DC Racing, last year 's LMP2 winner started 15th in class, 26th overall starting position. In LMGTE both classes were mainly controlled by Porsche. LMGTE Pro was led by the Porsche GT Team with 3 : 42.504 and 31st overall, with another one of its sister cars in second off the grid in the class and 32nd overall. Ford Chip Ganassi Team UK and AF Corse where 3rd, 33rd overall and 4th, 34th overall respectively to start the race. The new BMW M8 GTE was deployed and raced by BMW Team MTEK made its Le Mans debut and started off the grid 12th in class, 42nd overall. The sister car started behind it in 43rd overall. Dempsey - Proton was able to qualify top in the LMGTE Am class, with a time of 3 : 50.728 and placed 44th overall, ahead of the second of the LMGTE Pro entries of Corvette and Ferrari. Gulf Racing UK and the sister Dempsey - Proton car rounded out the top 3 in LMGTE Am on the grid. Qualifying results Provisional pole positions in each class are denoted in bold.

These included their fastest times of the session. Race The race began at 15 : 00 Central European Summer Time, with tennis champion Rafael Nadal waving the French tricolour at the starting line. Sébastien Buemi led the field from pole position in the No. 8 Toyota. As had been widely predicted, the two hybrid Toyota cars dominated the race. The lead swapped between the Toyotas several times over the first half of the race, before the # 8 car was assessed a 60 - second penalty when Buemi exceeded the speed limit in a caution zone during the night. This put the # 7 car over two minutes ahead, a lead they maintained until Fernando Alonso closed the gap during a quadruple stint in the dark. After 16 hours, Kazuki Nakajima took the # 8 car into the lead, which they maintained for the rest of the race. During the final hour, Kamui Kobayashi in the # 7 Toyota missed a pit stop, forcing him to complete most of a lap on electrical batteries alone when he ran out of fuel. The car made it back to the pits on the next lap, allowing Toyota to complete a one - two finish, ending with the # 8 car two laps ahead of the # 7 car. Toyota were the second Japanese manufacturer to win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, following Mazda 's triumph in 1991. Fernando Alonso, Sébastien Buemi, and Kazuki Nakajima all earned their first wins. Buemi and Nakajima had come close at the 2016 race, when their car broke down whilst leading on the final lap. Alonso 's win meant he had completed two of the three legs of the Triple Crown of Motorsport. In the LMP2 class, G - Drive TDS Racing finished two laps ahead of their competitors, but were subsequently disqualified when it was discovered that they had made illegal modifications to their pit lane refuelling equipment. Signatech Alpine were therefore promoted to LMP2 class winners. The LMGTE Professional class was won by Porsche GT Team, whilst Dempsey - Proton Racing were class winners in LMGTE Amateur. Race result The minimum number of laps for classification ( 70 % of the overall winning car 's race distance ) was 272 laps. Class winners are in bold.
