Grand Prix Karting Le Mans
Endurance racing is one of the most popular forms of rental kart racing. The mother of all endurance racing is the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Now we have combined the two into a Grand Prix Karting version of Circuit de La Sarthe. All iconic corners, locations and surroundings have found a place in GPK Le Mans.


There are 54 grid positions on the starting grid and in the pit lane an there are three layouts:
  • 2023 layout (with the Mulsanne chicanes)
  • classic layout (with one long Mulsanne straight without chicanes)
  • Bugatti Circuit.
This release is like the 2023 update for all other GPK tracks. That is with:
  • sausage curbs on the inside of the corners instead of black tires
  • 3D trees instead of 2D trees
  • lighting along the entire circuit.
The real Circuit de La Sarthe does not have the same bright lighting as on F1 circuits for night races because the World Endurance series hypercars and GT cars themselves have headlights. But GPK Le Mans is made for Formula Student without headlights and that is why there is extensive lighting along the entire circuit.

Online racing
The 2023 Formula Student Triple Crown will test the versatility and adaptability of drivers at different types of circuits and formats! Thus, after competing in the streets of GPK Monaco and the banking of GPK Indianapolis, it is time to face the last challenge: endurance racing at GPK Le Mans!

Welcome to the 2.4 hours of Le Mans. For more information on how to participate, join the Formula Student Discord server



FSGP 2023
During every Formula 1 weekend in 2023 we organize a FSGP race in the MAD Formula MFT02 on the GPK version of the Formula 1 circuit. Information can be found at simracinggp Formula Student community.
For every FSGP race there will be released a new 2023 update of the GPK track.


Grand Prix Karting
Grand Prix Karting tracks are F1 tracks with the layout of the original F1 track but the size, look and feel of real world karttracks. No big runoff areas, but modern wide kerbs, pit not on the infield but on the outside of the track, and a pitbuilding which is also a grandstand. These tracks are not a resized conversion of existing tracks but scratch build. Not laser scanned (because they are fiction) but handmade, which was a bit of a challenge with some tracks with a lot of elevation in the track and the terrain surrounding the track.

Formula Student
Formula Student is a competition involving universities from all over the world. Students from these universities develop, build and race these purpose-built, single-seater racecars against other universities in competitions that take place all over the world during the summer months. Formula Student is probably the most prestigious engineering competition at a student level.

MAD Formula Team
MAD Formula Team is one of these teams, representing University Carlos III of Madrid across Europe. The team is a relatively small and young team composed of over 50 students from various degrees. The team developed the MAD Formula Team MFTC3, MFT01 and MFT02 mods for Assetto Corsa, and you can test it out for free here:

It not only could feel like it is, I actually made it for the MFT02 :)
Now Abarth can onto Le Mans.
Finally i can hold a kart race at Le Mans and don't need to spend the whole day for one lap lol. Thank you so much for this
It trick me a bit 1 lap and i got it...looks like a mini le mans just it,thank's for your effort's...3d trees...you made a nice job to make it look good...the layout's i think you really tried your best,dunno maybe because it's a very old track is converted from the 1 rfactor right...even with your efforts it looks good but don't look visualy THAT realistic and it is a bit heavy maybe because of the 3d trees it's a price i think for trying bring this track back to life.
I haven't tried this yet, but I can already tell that this will be an amazing track to race on. Now all I think we need is a GPK version of the Nordschleife.

Because Le Mans is a long track, it was much work to build it. That is way it took me so long to release it. But Nordschleide is even much more work to build. A small miracle needs to happen will I build it (but sometimes miracles happen).
I've been waiting for this one for a while, spectacular!
