Nick Tandy knows he’s standing on the precipice of history. With wins at Daytona and Sebring this year, he’s in the unique position — alongside fellow Porsche Penske Motorsport drivers Felipe Nasr and Laurens Vanthoor — to be the first to win the triple crown of endurance racing within the space of a calendar year. But, that won’t change his approach to this weekend’s 24 Hours of Le Mans.
“Of course it would be something unbelievably special, however... the idea of winning Le Mans in any year stands alone by itself,” Tandy tells Motorsport.com, “If you get it and you add to making a triple crown, it’s just extra special, of course, but it doesn’t change what we’re going to do, it doesn’t change anything preparation wise or anything going into Le Mans because as a standalone event, it’s our World Cup final, it’s premier event in motorsport.
