The 24 Heures Motos at Le Mans opened the 2024 FIM Endurance World Championship (EWC) season in mid-April. The race offered more success for the Dunlop brand at the famous French circuit, as the tyre supplier shod 35 of the 48 teams that entered. Using the Dunlop tyres, the BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team took the second podium step overall, while Dunlop Superstock winner, National Motos Honda, finished in P5 overall. The fastest laps were set towards the end of stints, demonstrating enduring tyre performance in demanding conditions, Dunlop said.
