Aston Martin Racing returned to the Hotel de France in Chartre-sur-Loire this week to recreate an important part of history. The hotel was Aston Martin's base for its Le Mans campaigns in the 1950s and 60s including the year it won in 1959. The team would plan its strategy in the restaurant, prepare the cars down the side of the hotel and drive the cars to the circuit on the public roads some 40km away. We did this again this week......enjoy
