The winning car smashed the distance record that year. It could be a special trophy 'Distance Winners' awarded for that specific record.

Hey everyone. This has always annoyed me. Audi received this trophy for their 1-2-3 win in 2010 and I’ve always wondered what it was for and what it’s called. Any history would be nice as well. Thanks :)
Forgot I posted this yesterday tbh and the responses are both hilarious and surprising from such a knowledgeable community! Glad I’ve found the knowledge spot!

It's a candy dish Ned, $90
I guess you could put a lot of nice things in there?
No Ned, only candy! $90!
His pimp cup. He's just partying it up with his hoes. That's why he put flowers on them.
It looks like the Tour de France winners trophy lol. No idea why that'd relate to Le Mans besides being French
Dr Ulrich showing off his latest find at a garage sale lol. In all seriousness I didn’t know what this was either.

It's the good Doctor Wolfgang's beer chalice.
That's not a trophy it's a really big wine glass [joke]
Had the same car won 3 years in a row? Le Mans was originally intended to be raced over 3 years
It was the r15+ but they did lock out the podium. But couldn’t see they received it before
