Round Table with the Knights of Le Mans

"You have to beat Le Mans before you beat any of the opposition," Allan McNish says of the legendary circuit at Le Sarthe. Indeed, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is a race like no other. But what makes it so special? Autosport got four British drivers together - one from each class in the race - to discuss why they keep coming back to this gruelling classic

Gary Watkins asks the questions to Audi LMP1 ace and 1998 winner Allan McNish; Lola LMP2 driver and 2005 class winner Warren Hughes; Aston Martin GT1 star and 1991 Le Mans victor Johnny Herbert; and Risi Ferrari GT2 racer Johnny Mowlem.

Q: Does it feel good to be back? Do you get a sense of expectation as you drive into Le Mans?
