Ayhancan Güven Targets Le Mans 24 Hours Glory in His Debut Appearance

Ayhancan Güven Le Mans 24 Hours debut marks a major milestone in the Turkish driver's motorsport career. After achieving success in DTM, Güven is now turning his attention to one of the most prestigious endurance races in the world, taking place in France on June 13-14.

The Red Bull-backed driver will compete in the LMGT3 category aboard Manthey Racing’s #91 Porsche 911 GT3 R. He will share driving duties with James Cottingham and Timur Boguslavskiy as the team aims to continue its recent success at Le Mans.

First held in 1923, the Le Mans 24 Hours is widely regarded as one of the toughest events in motorsport, combining extreme speeds, overnight racing, and demanding endurance challenges. While this will be Güven’s first appearance in the event, his ambitions are clear.

The Turkish driver has stated that competing at Le Mans was never the ultimate goal on its own—winning has always been the objective. Having achieved his DTM ambitions, Güven now sees the iconic endurance race as the next major target in his career and will arrive with one of the strongest teams on the grid.
