An iconic circuit. A grid full of legends.
In a very special chapter of Trackside Season 2, the cameras head to France for the Le Mans Challenge Invitational — a once-in-a-lifetime event where world-class racers, champions, and media personalities go head-to-head in the brand-new Ford Mustang Dark Horse R.
This is no ordinary track day. This is the Circuit de la Sarthe — the most iconic racing circuit on the planet.
On the grid, you’ll find GT4 European Series regulars Erik Evans and Marco Signoretti lining up alongside some of the biggest names in racing and media. Sir Chris Hoy, six-time Olympic gold medalist turned racing driver, takes on the challenge, joined by Chris Harris, former Top Gear presenter, YouTuber, and seasoned competitor with serious pace. Add in the boundless energy of Steve Denton, and the stage is set for an unforgettable showdown.
With equal machinery, limited prep, and nothing but skill to separate the drivers, the Dark Horse Le Mans Mustang Challenge delivers a rare mix of competition, camaraderie, and pure motorsport theatre. From pre-race banter to wheel-to-wheel action, this episode captures how each driver adapts to the car, the circuit, and the moment.
This is what happens when you throw elite drivers and big personalities into the same paddock, give them serious horsepower, and say: “Go like hell.”
