Le Mans trivia
I was thinking about Le Mans the other day, wondering what would have been the last car to win outright without paddle shifters.
I reckon it would have been the BMW V12 LMR in 1999, which seems to have had a sequential shift lever near the driver's right hand.   So here's a question: Which was the last car to win with a regular H-Pattern manual gearbox? |

the '90 911 GT2 was still using an H manual gb if am I not wrong.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8A7UCc-ZrQ McLaren F1 is using a sequential gb without auto-clutch. Sequential gb were available during group C years? |

You're right, I was aware that 905 bis was using a sequential gb but I was wrong. The last car that obtained an overall le mans win with a manual gb should be the Dauer 962 LM or the TWR porsche WSC-95.
