The Catalan pilot (February 17, 1989, Lloret de Mar) warned MD that he had been thinking about this moment for a year, after bad luck took away his big chance to win last year due to a rock that damaged the radiator of his Ferrari. It hurt and it was hard for him to come back, but he did it because he wanted to get back at her. La Sarthe circuit. And he achieved it.
Miguel Molina won the queen category of Le Mans (Hypercar) with his companions Nielsen and Antonio Fuoco with the Official Ferrari 499P. In this way, he joined a short list of two other Spanish drivers in the history of the race who managed to reign in the top class of the legendary French event.
Only three Spanish champions in the premier class of Le Mans
Miguel Molina became the third Spanish driver to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the main category after the achievements of Marc Gené in 2009 with Peugeot and in 2018 and 2019 by Fernando Alonso.
Besides these three Spanish champions in the premier class, we must add a wider list of Spanish drivers who have achieved success in other categories, such as Antonio García, Jordi Gené, Juan Jover, Manso de Zúñiga, Carlos Palau, Fermín Vélez or Jesús Pareja.
