News from the track – The latest from the American Le Mans Series.
New Season, Same Philosophy
Michelin takes on all competitors in the premier open-racing series to develop and prove our technologies in a wide variety of cars, circuits and conditions. With a dozen consecutive overall race wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, over 100 wins in the American Le Mans Series and as technical partner of choice for many of the world’s top vehicle makers we use our motorsports programs to learn everything we can about tires in extreme conditions. Best of all, we take those findings directly to our technical centers to develop the best possible tires for your needs.
