Nissan Open Doors To Fans At Le Mans

1 Mins read

As the world of motorsport turns to focus on Le Mans, Nissan will once again put their emphasis on the fans at the Le Mans 24 Hours race.

Nissan first saw the true potential of fan interaction with the 2012 DeltaWing project, dubbed the world’s first social media car. At the 2013 race, Nissan will open their doors to the fans with the Nismo Fan Zone, revealing the 2014 Garage 56 entry to the fans before anyone else sees it.

The Garage 56 reveal will take place on Friday June 21 at 10:30am, and will also show the manufacturer’s hopes for an LMP1 future.

The fans will get a change to truly immerse themselves in the Nismo experience, with the chance to meet the drivers and enter competitions to win helicopter rides, garage tours, circuit tours and various other giveaways throughout the event.

Also on display will be the Nismo Lab, a copy of the training lab used by the Nismo athletes where fans can discover how fit they are and in they are lucky enough to try their hands in the driver training simulator.

The FanZone will open with the above and more on display from Thursday afternoon onwards.
