GTE Pro: The race within the race

It's Ferrari versus Aston Martin versus Corvette versus Porsche in GTE Pro at Le Mans - and anyone could win. Sam Tremayne heard the protagonists' views on the epic showdown ahead

There are just nine cars in GTE Pro at Le Mans this year, but it could provide the most spectacular class battle of the race - with all nine entries looking capable of victory.

AUTOSPORT heard from the major players as they made their final preparations for the weekend.

Westbrook counts on race pace

If not the most common pick, Corvette did at least seem to be in the back of most GTE Pro teams' minds. Quickest in the first qualifying practice, the #74 C6 didn't improve in either the second or third sessions but had still done enough to secure third on the grid. What attracted most attention however was its pace over the standard 13-lap stint on the Circuit de la Sarthe.
