Manthey presents special Le Mans livery for Porsche LMGT3 cars in anniversary year

Manthey celebrates 30 years and Porsche marks 75 years with special LMGT3 livery

Manthey will compete at the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans with a special one‑off livery celebrating two major milestones: 30 years of Manthey Racing and 75 years of Porsche Motorsport. Both Porsche 911 LMGT3 R entries (#91 and #92) will run a heritage‑inspired design that pays tribute to the Porsche 356 SL Coupé, the car that delivered Porsche’s first-ever Le Mans class victory back in 1951.

Manthey and Porsche honour racing heritage with unique Le Mans design

The #91 Manthey DK Engineering car will be driven by James Cottingham, Timur Boguslavskiy and Ayhancan Güven, while the #92 The Bend Manthey entry features Yasser Shahin, Riccardo Pera and Richard Lietz. The design reflects Manthey’s long-standing connection with Porsche Motorsport and highlights the team’s strong history at La Sarthe, including multiple class wins since 1999.

Porsche also underlines a unique statistic: the manufacturer has had at least one car on the Le Mans grid every year since 1951, making it the longest continuous presence in the race’s history. Manthey enters the 2026 edition as the reigning LMGT3 winner and current championship leader with the #92 crew.

24 Hours of Le Mans: 10–14 June

The 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans will take place from 10 to 14 June, with the world’s biggest endurance race once again forming the centrepiece of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

Jakob van Putten is the founder and editor-in-chief of RNT-Motorsports. Racing started as a hobby: he has followed motorsport since 1994, and Max Verstappen's rise into Formula 1 made him follow it more closely than ever, from Formula 1 and Formula 2 to the FIA WEC, endurance racing, GT World Challenge and the NLS. He started RNT-Motorsports because he enjoys bringing the news himself, and because he hopes to get more people as enthusiastic about the sport as he is. Today he does that together with an enthusiastic team who share the same passion and keep RNT-Motorsports up to date every race weekend. He holds press accreditation at NLS and GT World Challenge events, granted per event rather than as a standing credential.
