We have to imagine Toyota having the longest stint length with Glick probably able to match. Alpine 1 less lap, and then P2, will they be near the Alpine or even a lap shorter?
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.

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 ?

The new rules means not so much. The overall power curve is defined and it the total of ICE and EV.

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.

Well, the olde traditional time was 4 pm, before it got moved to 3. It went to 3 due to a soccer game conflict?

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.

“With this place being as fast as it is, we need as much straight-line speed as we can get.

“We’re at a bit of a deficit right now compared to some of the other Porsches. We are looking for a little more top speed in the car as well as fine tuning the balance.”
