Unlike LM, where the VAGs underperformed(which made Toyota's effort look better, imho), it seems that the cars would almost repeat the 2015 times, this year, if it wasn't for the slower chicane.

They were 3s slower today, compared to last year, and the LMP2s and GTs indicates that the different layout impact is around 2-3s(cars also changed in these other categories, although less)

Let's see if Toyota can keep up here, but it will be quite harder as the sprint packs of the VAGs almost cancells the -10MJ, again unlike LM where they were way off.

It still seems like a wet QLF and dry race, so tomorrow results might mean nothing at all for the race.
