What has happened to the LeMans 24 Hour Race?

There was a time when this was arguably the biggest motor sport event in the world. Now it doesn't warrant a mention on the news unless there is a crash.
I think it lost its way when they decided that the rules should be altered so that a deisel car would win. Now no one cares any more.

Will it ever return to greatness?

Its still a good event to go to watch but it really has been ignored in the media.

It's true heard very little about it this year. But do you know what the problem is... it's too long!
