It was Porsche’s 17th Le Mans win. The No. 17 car of Australian Mark Webber, New Zealand’s Brendon Hartley and Germany’s Timo Bernhard finished second. Audi’s defending champions Andre Lotterer, Benoit Treluyer and Marcel Faessler completed the podium places in the 83rd edition of the endurance race.
