The team -- owned by the nine-time World Rally Champion and his long-time friend Dominique Heintz -- has sent an entry request to the ACO, the organisers of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Last year, Sebastien Loeb Racing took part in the test day at Le Mans, but did not participate in the race, as planned.

In the meantime, Loeb Racing will also contest the new FIA GT Series, running two McLaren MP4-12Cs, with one car being driven by Loeb himself and Alvaro Parente, and the team will also run several cars in the French Porsche Carrera Cup.
