New Zealand driver Brendon Hartley has won his second Le Mans 24 hour title.

The kiwi driver helped Toyota win their third straight win in the French classic.

Hartley, Kazuki Nakajima and Sebastien Buemi were the drivers that guided their Toyota Hybrid car home to first place.

It is a third win in a row for Nakajima and Buemi, who triumphed in 2018 and 2019 alongside Fernando Alonso, and a second win for Alonso’s replacement Hartley following his Porsche win in 2017.

The race, first held in 1923 and now in its 88th edition, was held for the first time without spectators due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last year’s event attracted 250,000 fans to the track in northwest France.
