How to watch 2020 Le Mans 24 Hour Race online anywhere

Having been postponed from its usual spring date, the world’s most iconic endurance race finally takes place this weekend – read on for full details on how to watch the 2020 Le Mans 24 race, no matter where you are in the world.

This 88th running of the race will be somewhat different, taking place behind closed doors for the first time

A huge crowd of 250,000 enthusiastic spectators would normally be trackside, but motorsports fans will nevertheless be grateful that the event is taking place at all, with strong rumours earlier in the year that the 2020 edition of the race was set to be scrapped.

Toyota Gazoo Racing come into this year’s event hoping to make it three wins in a row, following last year’s triumph which saw F1 legend Fernando Alonso alongside Sebastian Buemi and Kazuki Nakajima lead the team to victory.

Along with the tiredness of competing in a 24 race, this year’s driver will also have to contend with testing conditions with rain and thunderstorms currently forecast for the Sarthe region on Saturday night.

Read on as we explain below how to get a Le Mans 2020 live stream for this week’s race.
