Which Dutch driver won Le Mans in 1988?

Jan Lammers was the Dutch driver who won the 1988 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Lammers shared the winning Silk Cut Jaguar XJR-9LM with Britain’s Johnny Dumfries and Andy Wallace. Their Jaguar completed 394 laps and beat the leading Porsche 962C by only about 180 metres, one of the closest finishes in the race’s history.

The victory was a major moment for Jaguar, which had not won Le Mans since 1957. Lammers was central to the result: near the end, the Jaguar’s gearbox broke, but he selected fourth gear and avoided shifting for the rest of the race. A final pit stop was also completed despite the damaged transmission, allowing the car to reach the flag.

The question asks for the Dutch driver, rather than every member of the winning crew. Lammers is the only Dutch driver in that trio. Hans-Joachim Stuck was in the runner-up Porsche, while Tom Kristensen and Gijs van Lennep won Le Mans in other years, not in 1988.
