24 Hours of Le Mans motorcycle race

Well, there likely will not be coverage of the 24 Hours of Le Mans motorcycle race as a month has passed since it's completion.  It was billed as the finale for the 2012 FIM World Endurance Championship.  But, apparently, it has also gone back to being a stand alone event in a way, with the other 24 hour race (the Bol D'or) being the main event.  That was highlighted on this blog months ago.

SRC Kawasaki takes the win, giving Kawasaki a three-peat in terms of triumphs at the Bugatti motorcycle circuit at Le Mans.  Julien Da Costa, Gregory Leblanc, and Freddy Foray, were the winning riders.  No real need to highlight all class winners within the blog.  The story was covered by www.lemans.org with all of the news of the class winners.  Direct your attention, motorcycle racing fans, to the following link for the whole story.

Thus concludes the endurance motorcycle racing season for 2012.  So long until next year.  But, there will be plenty more about worldwide motorcycle racing.  Two more rounds of MotoGP still to come this season, and other snippets of news will be shared.  Stay tuned for further details as they arise.
