The AKKODIS ASP Team are readying the Lexus RC F GT3 for the newly established LMGT3 category in the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship.

From their base in Toulouse in the South of France, they will be travelling to race locations in eight countries.

While every race will be an event in its own right, it is the 24 Hours of Le Mans that will be the primary draw. Le Mans is quite a distance from Toulouse, but numerous locations connect the two cities with a deep history of France’s car culture that lie along the route between them.

So I embarked on a grand tour between the two cities with the Lexus RC F Track Edition to explore France's devotion to Motorsport along the way.
