I just read a comment from Alpine to be actually lucky if they would have a stint length only 1 lap shorter. I assume there will be sints where they will fall 2 laps short from the Toyotas and Glick.

Sorry wasn't sure which thread to ask this in.
What time does the race start on Saturday (UK time) please? The official site says 4pm French Time so presumably 3pm UK time. Other sites say 2pm and a few even say 1:30? It would be much appreciated if someone could clarify the UK start time thanks. |

Hello everybody!. I know this isn’t the toyota hypercar section. But wondering what’s anyone’s guess on both the hyperpole time and race pace? Low, mid or high 20’ ?

Will Toyota have the upper hand out of the twisty areas and in heavy traffic due to the hybrid or it won’t be much of an advantage beside helpin them save fuel ?

In addition, front wheel drive cannot kick in until 120km/h. So any traction advantage out of slow corners or in the wet is limited. |

It often moved due to other sport or elections.
A few years ago I remember it went to 3pm CET on a more permanent basis. I thought the rationale was to give people more travel time after the race. Although probably there were several reasons. I think the last two years that is out the window due to having no spectators or lower number. |
