Yes, Toyota got everything right. The others did not. This includes the build up and the last two years. The others were very close on pace , or ahead at times, in practice and in the race. But they couldn't get the calls right and they couldn't get the tires right and they couldn't do it lap after lap after lap. In 8 hours that can be 2 laps.
Losing 2 laps is being 0.76% worse! Even in BoP world, running a car for two years gets you that.
The winning car stopped 7 times, the third place 10 times. There is a lot going on.
Toyota were fast and consistent. Some were just fast. Some were fast, but fell off. Some were Peugeot.
Well done Toyota. Very impressive.
Let's see if the others have that level of impressiveness first.
