Do you remember Delage Automobiles? A French company established in 1905 by Louis Delage that made some of the most luxurious vehicles of the time. They also went racing and had several successes include a win at Le Mans 24hr.
Delage has been reborn with the support of the “Friends of Delage Association” and inspired entrepreneur Laurent Tapie. Not only are they starting to build amazing cars again like the D12 which has been called the “F1 car for the road” but they have just announced that they will make a return to Le Mans 24hr race in June this year with IDEC SPORT.
“Delage will be one of the participants in the 100th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMP2 category. The technical teams of IDEC SPORT racing and those of DELAGE Automobiles have decided to join forces: the LMP2 prototype of the Idec Sport team will therefore sport a blue livery in tribute to the legendary French manufacturer Delage for what will be the 7th participation for the two respective entities.”
We wish them every success!!!
