- Seven of Tom Kristensen’s record nine victories have come with Audi. Kristensen has also won once each with Porsche and Bentley.

- Toyota nearly became the 25th constructor to win overall in 2016. With less than three minutes remaining in the race, a mechanical failure occurred on the lead Toyota TS050 Hybrid Toyota 2.4L Turbo V6, driven by Kazuki Nakajima. The car completed 384 laps, the same as the winning Porsche, but it took the car nearly 12 minutes to complete the last lap, more than the maximum allotment of six minutes, and therefore was not classified.
