I enjoyed the race. I love the Fuji track and 100r into the hairpin is a great turn. There was a lot of passing in the race, just because lmp1 didn't have a challenge to Toyota didn't mean that it was boring. At least to me that is. Once the rain was there, no one would touch Toyota anyway. Even in 2015 when they had by far the slowest lmp1 they were mighty in the rain thanks to the dual kers. For those that said the weight had no affect, they were slower than 2016. 1:22's in qualifying that year vs 1:23's this year. And we know that the Toyota has been breaking lap records before the weight addition. So it looks like it cost them nearly a second. Private teams are almost there but it doesn't help their cause with their unreliability playing a factor. They'll get there I'm sure of it, one way or another.
