Vanishing Point: Day and Night at the Richard Mille Le Mans Classic

About a month after the famous Le Mans 24 hour endurance race, every two years, the Le Mans Classic takes place on the same circuit. With cars from every decade over which the race has been run, the Le Mans Classic is a celebration of racing machines from yesteryear; from the start of the famous race, to more recent times.
