GasperG has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
The battery system may be the right choice, but there is a big difference between battery cells and battery pack, we will see how hard is it to keep cells happy the whole 24 hours in what Porsche said this year in a lighter battery pack.

Also interesting is that Toyota was doing 1-2 lap less per stint than Porsche, yes higher MJ class gets you more range but only 1% difference on paper and if track was really so hybrid unfriendly this still shows us that Toyota is lagging in efficiency. Or maybe this is the source of Porsche lack of pace in the race because they were saving fuel for 30 laps stints?

Did anyone time the refuelling, was Toyota really dry after 28 laps or was this part of their strategy, after all they pitted first in FCY and 29-30 laps would be really hard fit for one pit stop less.
