This year also marks a welcome return to Le Mans for Jaguar cars with a round of the Jaguar Classic Challenge which will take place on Saturday the 9th of July on the full 8.48 mile (13.65km) Le Mans circuit.

This year the team will be preparing and supporting the Low drag E-Type of Julian Thomas at the event. Powered by a Denis Welch Motorsport 3.8 litre, 6 cylinder XK engine. Coupled with the unique low drag body it will enable the car to achieve speeds in excess of 160mph on the fastest part of the track. Thomas, along with co-driver Calum Lockie have won the opening two rounds of the 2016 challenge at Donington and Silverstone. The Le Mans track is a much different track though.
