TOYOTA GAZOO Racing’s #8 GR010 HYBRID (Sébastien BUEMI/Brendon HARTLEY/Ryo HIRAKAWA) battling for the lead
At 14:00 on June 11th (local time, 21:00 on the 11th Japan time), less than 30 minutes remained until the finish line of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Blue sky has returned to the site, and there is no forecast of rain. It looks like we will reach the finish line with the early summer weather.
The battle for the overall win in the hypercar class is TOYOTA GAZOO Racing’s No. 8 GR010 HYBRID (Sébastien BUEMI/Brendon HARTLEY/Ryo HIRAKAWA) and Ferrari’s No. 51 Ferrari 499P (Alessandro PIER GUIDI/James CALADO/Antonio GIOVINAZZI). narrowed down to
Cadillac’s No. 2 Cadillac V-Series.R (Earl BAMBER/Alex LYNN/Richard WESTBROOK) had a gap of more than one lap from the lead. If there is a difference of more than one lap, even if the safety car comes out, it will not be possible to reduce the difference significantly, so it will be virtually eliminated from the battle for the top.
Thirty minutes before the finish line, Toyota’s No. 8 car had a gap of more than three minutes from the top, and was forced into a tough battle. However, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is where you never know what will happen. Toyota continues to chase the lead until the end.
With 30 minutes remaining, if Toyota wins, it will be the sixth consecutive victory to match Ferrari’s record.
