B&O car racing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans

33 replies

Will anyone else be following the Bang & Olufsen sponsored prototype car racing at the 24 hours of Le Mans this weekend?  I wish I could be there in person this year, but it was just not in the cards...  I was there in 2013 working with the Dodge Viper team and it was one of the best events I have ever been a part of. 

Hi, just watching some of the practice now, well it's on in the background. I'll keep an eye out if I get chance to catch any coverage over the weekend for sure.

Never been, but it's on my list to try and get to one year!! - as a spectator
On a flight right now to France for the race. I'll snap some pictures during the pit walk on Friday.

Location: USA / Denmark

25 years as a professional hitch-hiker...  poor fella 

As for the B&O on the car, it's nice to see the B&O name out there!  Wonder how much it cost though...  Could it have been better spent on an advert in the Sunday Times, or GQ, or something with a wider and specifically more target audience?

 

Is this B&O or "bang and olufsen automotive" now owned by Harman Kardon?

I am pretty sure it is B&O.  There is no mention of Automotive...  I know a couple people on the team, I will find out.
