Because they have the Ferrari badge on their cars But worry not, they'll surely do everything possible in the race not to take advantage of their supreme pace... like in all races before.

It should not…… But there's always a point to start from, ya no, and there's already different Hypercars PLUS the BoP. Each time Geneva people put their heavy hands on a sport it becomes a show with secret rules.

yeah, they're inspecting the damage in the garage.
#93 Peugeot pulled off at Mulsanne hump. This has been an absolute nightmare for them. It's gotta get better...

Ferrari... is very fast.

But Porsche is very very strong. They did one lap in quali and went 4th. Not much trying... And in LMP1H era they were always better setup for the race. If Ferrari will do a Ferrari, than we got "classic" Porsche vs Toyota I think.

I think the limited running for Porsche was to hide their ultimate pace... I might be wrong but it is a gut feeling. :P

I’m just catching up. Reading through the comments.

I will be updating the charts with all the practice and qualifying running. We’ll see what that shows, but I’m guess that Toyota will still look pretty strong.

It isn’t the recent BoP changes that got Ferrari that pole. Reverse it and it was still pole. They looked like they had pace even at Spa (although not on cold tyres). And tyre wise today they were up to speed straight away!

Going to be fun
