Despite starting in the back, and a bad performance during training, they slowly climbed up and delivered. Yeah, finishing in first and third, it looks like they still have it. Ferrari, that I expected to put up a better fight, was disappointing. Cadillac and BMW (second place) showed some moments of dominance but just didn&#8217;t have what it takes. Genesis and Aston, as expected, weren&#8217;t contenders at all. And Alpine and Peugeot? Well, both, as always, didn&#8217;t have anything to show (and this was Alpine&#8217;s last year)&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In GT3, Corvette came in first (Ben Keating is King), followed by Lexus. I was routing for Lexus, and though they did do a strong race, Corvette was better. In LMP2 Inter Europol brought their two cars in first and second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Honestly, one of the smoothest Le Mans I&#8217;ve ever seen, with almost zero drama. Kind of boring \ud83e\udd14? Well, maybe you could say that&#8230; Nonetheless, even a not-so exciting Le Mans race is always a great Le Mans race \ud83e\udd18\ud83e\udd18\ud83e\udd18<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welp, looks like Toyota is back on top again \ud83d\ude0e.
