LMP2 (Le Mans Prototype 2)
LMP2 (Le Mans Prototype 2) is a category of race cars designed for endurance racing, notably in events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. These cars are purpose-built prototypes focusing on advanced aerodynamics, reliability, and performance, but they have budget restrictions limiting modifications and engine power compared to top-tier classes like LMP1 or Hypercars. LMP2 vehicles feature closed cockpits, lightweight construction, and are driven by professional racing drivers, aiming to provide a competitive and cost-controlled platform for private teams and manufacturers to compete in high-level endurance racing.
