DETROIT (June 8, 2026) – Chevrolet and Corvette Racing will look to extend its run of success at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with four Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs that will contest the famed French endurance race on June 13-14.
The Corvette quartet at the twice-around-the-clock classic is the largest group of Corvettes at Le Mans in a decade, and all are under the Corvette Racing umbrella. The program has a stellar record at the race with nine class victories – the most recent coming in 2023. The GT3-spec Corvette finished third in class at Le Mans in 2025, its first podium in the race since its 2024 debut.
The Corvette lineup includes three cars from TF Sport – including its two FIA World Endurance Championship entries plus a third that will feature drivers and crew from Johor Motorsports Racing. The fourth Corvette is from 13 Autosport, which is back at Le Mans after winning a second consecutive Bob Akin Award in the 2025 IMSA season.
The lineup:
- No. 33 TF Sport Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Nicky Catsburg/Jonny Edgar/Ben Keating
- No. 34 Racing Team Turkey by TF Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Charlie Eastwood/Salih Yoluc/Peter Dempsey
- No. 2 TF Sport Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Ben Green/Lorcan Hanafin/HH Prince Jefri Ibrahim
- No. 13 13 Autosport Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Matt Bell/Orey Fidani/Lars Kern
TF Sport’s No. 33 and No. 34 Corvettes hope to use a Le Mans victory or podium to propel up the FIA WEC LMGT3 championship standings. The 24 Hours is a double-points race, and success there usually bodes well. Every LMGT3 championship winner since 2021 has won in class at Le Mans.
Catsburg, Edgar and Blake McDonald – subbing for an injured Keating in the first two events – are fourth in points on the strength of a runner-up finish in the season-opening race at Imola. Meanwhile, the No. 34 trio finished ninth in the most recent race at Spa-Francorchamps to score its first championship points of the season.
The No. 2 TF Sport Corvette is the result of the team claiming the 2025 European Le Mans Series championship. Of the three drivers, only Hanafin has raced at Le Mans although his two teammates have extensive experience in the Corvette at races like the Spa 24 Hours and Bathurst 12 Hours, where they were Pro-Am runners-up in February.
13 Autosport placed 10th in its Le Mans debut a year ago. The striking Canadian red Corvette was an instant hit with fans, and the driver lineup is the same as in 2025.
The 24 Hours of Le Mans is scheduled for 10 a.m. ET / 4 p.m. CET on Saturday, June 13. Live streaming coverage of all on-track sessions – including qualifying and Hyperpole – plus timing and scoring is available through a subscription on FIA WEC Plus with additional live streaming on the HBO Max app in the U.S. Radio Le Mans also will provide live streaming audio coverage of all sessions as well.
