Kevin Magnussen has repeatedly said that he dreams of performing in the same carriage with his father Jan in the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans marathon. This year the Danish driver's dream will come true - Kevin and Jan Magnussen will compete at Le Mans for the H31gh Class Racing team in the LMP2 category. Another Danish Anders Fjordbach will be their partner at the wheel of the ORECA 07-Gibson at number 49.

The upcoming start at Le Mans will be the 23rd for Jan Magnussen. Over the years, Jan has won four victories with the Corvette.

Last year, Magnussen Sr. competed for JMW Motors28ort in the GTE Am category.

For Kevin, the upcoming participation in Le Mans will be his debut. Magnussen raced for the Haas Formula 1 team last year, and this year he participates in the IMSA racing series. In 2022, Kevin will spend a season at the WEC with the Peugeot factory team.
