Prime Video Announces June 12 Premiere Date for "American Thunder: NASCAR to Le Mans"
The feature-length documentary - formerly known as Garage 56 - will chronicle NASCAR's special entry at the 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023
NEW YORK - April 22, 2025 - Today, Prime Video announced a June 12 premiere date for American Thunder: NASCAR to Le Mans, a feature-length documentary about NASCAR's 2023 endeavor to compete in the historic 24 Hours of Le Mans race with an American stock car. The documentary - formerly known as Garage 56 - will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide, and is the latest addition to the Prime membership. Prime members enjoy savings, convenience, and entertainment all in a single membership.
The 24 Hours of Le Mans is one of the crown jewels of international motorsports. It's a showcase of sports car racing excellence that tests the limits of man and machine. For the race's 100th anniversary running in June 2023, an invitation was extended to NASCAR to bring an American stock car Chevrolet Camaro to compete against the futuristic Ferrari and Porsche prototypes and attempt to complete the grueling 24-hour challenge that is Le Mans. It was NASCAR Chairman and CEO Jim France's dream since childhood to have one of his cars race at Le Mans, so he recruited NASCAR's most successful team, Hendrick Motorsports, to build and race the car. Along with world-class drivers Jenson Button, Jimmie Johnson, and Mike Rockenfeller, Hendrick Motorsports embarked on an eighteen-month journey to develop a race car designed to run three-hour races on ovals in the United States into one that could survive the challenge of racing 24 hours straight on an unforgiving road course.
American Thunder: NASCAR to Le Mans is produced by NASCAR Studios and Griffin Van Malssen and directed by Brad Lockhart. The film is executive produced by Jeff Gordon of Hendrick Motorsports and Tim Clark, John Dahl, Amy Anderson, Tally Hair, and Matt Summers of NASCAR.
