The overall winners of all events since 1923 are listed here. The race has been run every year since its inception with the exception of 1936, when the race was not run due to worker strikes, and 1940 to 1948, due to World War II. Records for wins are also listed. Lower class wins are not included.
After the first 44 events had two drivers per winning entry, the winning entry used three drivers in 1977, which became the winning norm from 1985 onwards. With multiple drivers per winning entry, tempered by some drivers winning more than once, a total of 136 different drivers have won in the 88 runnings of the race.

Notes
- Luigi Chinetti won Le Mans initially as an Italian, but later won as an American. His wins are included for both countries.
- The 1994 victory is listed with Porsche, although Dauer Sportwagen was the official constructor of the road car, a Porsche 962 heavily modified for street use and race homologation.
- The 1996 and 1997 victories are listed with Porsche, although the car was built by TWR on a modified Jaguar XJR-14 chassis, fitted with a Porsche 962 engine.
- "The ACO attributed the 1989 victory to the Swiss constructor Sauber". Archived from the original on 2017-10-02. Retrieved 2017-10-01.
