Drivers from expert Bentley restoration company Vintage Bentley will be behind the wheel this time. Once at its destination, the car will lead the procession of entries for the 2024 Le Mans following the scrutineering session prior to the race which runs June 15-16. The 3 Liter Sport won't immediately return to the U.K. following the race.
