Bentley Speed 8, racing hard to start, change to intermediates end of laps 2 and 8. Don't take on any fuel and set aero for maximum downforce. You can keep increasing pace but if you do make sure you decrease for corner at end of Mulsanne straight or you'll be off into the gravel.
This has worked for me now lots of times, 200% win bonus = 6 million credits and 1000000 xp every win!

I never finished above 8th 'til I did the above. Got to admit I haven't tried the race with the Chaparral, but you should win if you use intermediates and pit twice.
Pit at the end of lap 8 because the leaders always seem to pit at the end of lap 9 and you normally pass them while they're in the pits or you'll get past on the last lap. Also make sure you decrease pace at the end of the Mulsanne straight or you'll go in the gravel. Just up the pace again when you've got round the corner.

Wets didn't work for me, but intermediates do. Just experiment and see what happens for you.

Busy with 24h of Le Mans, it took me around two months to finish as it's a giantic borefest. I just started the 24h of the Nordschleife. I think it will take me several years to finish that one as soon as it turns night in game.
