was upgraded, most obviously by the reprofiling of the Tertre Rouge corner. The new corner was moved inward, to create a long flowing curve instead of the single point
it had been previously, shortening the lap distance by 21 meters to a revised 13.629 km. A new pedestrian tunnel – below the

to increase the number of entries it could grant from 50 to 55. The paddock behind the garages was also re-organized with more facilities added for spectators, including more shops, new landscaping, and the Audi Tower monument.
The public roads from the Indianapolis corner to the Porsche Curves were re-surfaced.
, Tertre Rouge, Indianapolis, and Ford Chicanes were also partially asphalted in order to avoid gravel being brought back onto the circuit by cars which had gone off course. This also increased safety by allowing the cars to slow themselves more efficiently using their brakes and tyres on
Several months before the event, the ACO announced rule changes for all Le Mans-based series (
(IMSA) initially decided to not abide by the LMP2 restrictor change for the American Le Mans Series, although that decision was reversed following Le Mans. SERO decided not to fully conform to the new ACO regulations in the Japan Le Mans Challenge until 2008.
It was also decided that the race would start at 3:00 pm local time, one hour earlier than the normal 4:00 pm, to allow French spectators more time to vote in the 17 June
for winning certain races and championships in their respective classes. Teams were limited to no more than two entries. If a team had already earned its two entries, additional invitations were extended to the next best-performing competitor. Cars running outside of the ACO's rules were also skipped and the invitation given to the next competitor.
On 13 December 2006, the ACO released its official list of automatic entries from the multiple Le Mans backed series and races. On 22 December, the ACO announced that it would add four more automatic entries, this time chosen from the
's team champions and runners-up in each class, as part of an agreement between the ACO and FIA GT's
All other teams had to apply to the ACO for an invitation. The ACO then decided on the remainder of the entry list based on each team's recent performances, as well as its originality in chassis and engine design.

On 19 January 2007, the ACO announced that 24 of the 28 teams had accepted their automatic entries before the deadline. Penske Racing turned down both of its invitations, and Ray Mallock, Ltd. rejected its second entry because of a lack of funding. Vitaphone Racing Team rejected its invitation because its

On 27 February 2007, the ACO published the official entry list, which included the full 55 entries and 8 reserves.

's factory team. Fellow Audi DTM driver
was nominated as his possible replacement by Audi. However, on June 11, 2007 Kristensen was cleared by doctors to race, leaving Ekström's services unneeded.
A total of eight reserve entries were listed by the ACO in its initial published list. Reserves were added to the entry list when a competitor already on the list withdrew. The ACO determined the order in which reserve entries were considered for addition to the entry list.
Two cars officially withdrew from the entry list in April, with their places taken by the following reserve entries:
also withdrew its entry from the reserve list due to its drivers reaching an agreement with AF Corse to run in its entry instead.
The official test session for Le Mans was held on 3 June, and was the only practice session that was not part of qualifying timing. A total of eight hours of track time was allowed for teams to find their set-ups and for

Although there were various small incidents, three major accidents led to a red flag for the session. The #13
entry, driven by Guillaume Moreau, went off at the Porsche Curves during the second hour. The car could not return to the test session due a bent chassis caused by the heavy impact. The second red flag involved the #24 Noël del Bello entry going off the track at the same location in the hands of
, becoming briefly airborne after contact with the concrete wall. In the final incident, almost in the last hour of the session, the #10 Arena Motorsports
led to the car being withdrawn during scrutineering a week and a half later, just before the actual race. The team decided that it was not able to repair the damage in time for the car to pass scrutineering.
Qualifying was held on 13–14 June, with two two-hour sessions each night; one run at dusk, the other in darkness. New drivers were again required to run a set number of laps to learn the circuit and be allowed to race: three in daylight and three at night. The best overall time from all four sessions determined the starting grid.
The first qualifying session began under the threat of rain, so most of the teams tried to set a good lap time before the conditions deteriorated. The
s swapped the overall pole position several times, and at the end of the session the #1 Audi was fastest overall with a time of 3.28.301. The #33 Barazi-Epsilon

chicane. The #25
were the only cars not to set a lap time before the session briefly returned to green as rain began. The ACO extended the session by fifteen minutes to compensate for the earlier red flag.
The second session started several minutes late due to the damp conditions from the earlier rain. A red flag briefly came out for the #5 Swiss Spirit Lola a few minutes after the session began due to the car being stopped at the side of the track. Although the track was drying, it was not until the last half hour that teams were able to improve on their first session times. The #2 Audi and #8 Peugeot swapped the pole position multiple times before the session ended with the #8 Peugeot claiming the top position on the final lap of the session with a time of 3:26.344. In GT1 the #008
took the class lead on the final lap with a 3:50.761. The LMP2 and GT2 classes saw very little improvement; the class leading teams remained the same.
It was later announced by the ACO that JLOC Isao Noritake would be allowed to use another
team, but Marco Apicella was not allowed to drive in the race due to the head injuries he sustained in his accident during qualifying, leaving the team with two drivers.
The first session on Thursday began in heavy rain. Although some cars attempted to carry out wet weather testing, the conditions forced all the teams back to their garages. Once the rain began to slacken off cars returned to the track, but the rain continued throughout the entire session. No one was able to improve on their qualifying times from the previous day.
The rain continued throughout the second session, so most teams concentrated on their wet weather setups in preparation for a wet race. About halfway through the session the #7
missed the turn at Arnage and hit a tire barrier. The car was unable to return to the pits and was taken behind the wall by the marshals. This was soon followed by the #73
missing the same turn as well, but it continued on without significant damage. The #70 PSI
had a minor accident in the last five minutes of the session, bringing out the only red flag of the day and ending all of qualifying.
led the wet sessions with a 4:01.257 time for the #1 car, followed by the #3 Audi and #8 Peugeot within a second. #33 Barazi-Epsilon again lead the times for the second day in LMP2, while the #54
continued to show strong pace with the fastest time in GT1. The #93 Autorlando Sport
. No cars set a faster time on the second day.
The race began at 3:00 pm local time (GMT+1), with the track still damp following a wet morning warm-up.
's Peugeot 908 HDi FAP led the field into the Dunlop Chicane, which he overshot, handing the lead to the #2 Audi R10 TDI. The three Audis took over the lead during the opening hour, before pit stops began.
The rebuilt Lamborghini of JLOC Isao Noritake was the first retirement of the race when the gearbox failed on the Mulsanne during its second lap of the race. Shortly after the first hour of the race had been completed, heavy rain resulted in the

attempted to return to the pits using battery power but was stopped by the marshals, forcing him to abandon the car. The race eventually continued after nearly an hour under caution.
As dusk began to fall on the drying track, the #8 Peugeot suffered from rear wheel hub failures which required two lengthy visits to the garage. This allowed the #1 Audi to take over second place.
's #7 Peugeot also lost time, which dropped it to two laps behind the #2 Audi. The #1 Audi had its own brief moment when the #63 Corvette clipped the Audi's rear end.

entry, which ran into the tire barriers at the Porsche Curves and needed to be extracted. The Creation returned to the pits but eventually retired. The Kruse Motorsport entry also suffered problems when it briefly stopped at the pit entrance during the caution period, blocking other cars attempting to make their own pit stops. The Kruse entry eventually succeeded in getting to its garage.
As the night continued and the race neared its halfway point, many cars suffered mechanical failures, putting them out of the race. They included a large number of the LMP2 class cars such as Team ASM and
, both of which had led the class at one point. In GT1, the two factory
In the early hours, fluids were spilled on the track by the leader in GT2, the Risi Competizione Ferrari. This caused numerous competitors to spin, and required the Ferrari to undergo major front-end repairs, resulting in the car falling several laps behind.
The biggest problem of the morning though occurred shortly before the completion of the 17th hour, when the race-leading #2 Audi of
lost a left rear wheel at high speed at the Indianapolis corner. Unable to control the car he went straight on into a tire barrier. Although Capello attempted to get the car back to the pits, it was too badly damaged to be drivable. Television footage had recorded the #2 Audi being dropped off its airjacks before the left rear wheel was attached on the prior pit stop, but Audi claimed that this was likely not the cause of the wheel coming off at speed.
With two Audis out, this left the lone #1 Audi to take over the race lead, with the two Peugeots four and six laps behind respectively. Just before to the #2 Audi's accident, the GT1-leading Aston Martin had also come off the track, damaging its
. The necessary repairs led to the car spending eight minutes in the garage, dropping it to fourth in class. The lone factory Corvette gained a place to take over second in class. Scuderia Ecosse's Ferrari briefly took over the GT2 lead after Risi's problems, but it too broke down on the track, handing the lead to the IMSA Performance Matmut Porsche. Binnie Motorsport's entry had a sizable lead in its class, having not suffered the many problems its LMP2 competitors had.
After having held off for most of the race, the rain began to fall once more during the final three hours. This caused numerous incidents, including the #93 Autorlando Porsche missing a Mulsanne chicane and plowing through a temporary tire barrier. The #7 Peugeot made an unscheduled garage stop and retired one lap after re-entering the race, claiming oil pressure problems.
The rain eventually became heavier, making the conditions treacherous and bringing the safety car back out. This put a temporary stop to the battle between Aston Martin and Corvette for first and second place in the GT1 class. The second place Corvette had been quicker in the wet conditions, but it was not allowed to further close on the Aston Martin during the safety period. After problems for both of the Barazi-Epsilon LMP2s, Binnie Motorsports brought its class leading LMP2 car to the garage to ensure that the car was prepared for the weather and could hold on to the lead until the finish.
After over an hour behind the safety car, the field was released to race one last time with only twelve minutes remaining. With no close contests between the competitors, the field continued to run at less than racing pace, in preparation for the finish. The #8 Peugeot of Sébastien Bourdais briefly went into the pits, before returning to the track. To ensure that the Peugeot finished the race, and did not break down before crossing the finishing line behind the winner, Bourdais stopped at the Ford Chicanes on the final lap. Once the #1 Audi had gone past to take the checkered flag, Bourdais restarted the Peugeot and finished as well. The #16
The #009 Aston Martin took the GT1 class win by a single lap over the Corvette, earning Aston Martin its first victory since its overall win in . The #76 IMSA Performance Matmut Porsche was the GT2 winner, with a six lap margin of victory. Only two cars finished in the LMP2 class. The #31 Binnie Motorsports Lola took the victory in spite of finishing 18th overall. Of the 54 starters, only 29 cars finished the race. The GT1 class cars proved themselves to be the most reliable, losing only two competitors over the 24 hours.
Although at the end of the race, both Audi and Peugeot's maximum speeds recorded on the Mulsanne Straight were equally the fastest - 339 km/h, the Audi R10 was far more consistent under the aspect of highest speeds: the R10 constantly did around 338–339 km/h at the fastest part of the circuit, while the Peugeot did 339 km/h just once and only from 334 km/h down on a regular basis. This was quite obvious once the R10 and the 908 met at the fastest points of the track, where the Audis typically passed the Peugeots without hesitation.
. Cars finishing the race but not completing 75% of the winner's distance are listed as Not Classified (NC).
