As part of a sudden and unexpected change in Balance of Performance for the centenary edition of the French endurance classic, the minimum weight of the two Toyota GR010 Hybrids has been raised by 37kg, the highest increase for any car in the Hypercar class.
This contributed to Toyota’s underwhelming showing in the pre-Le Mans 24 test, with the best of its two hybrid LMH contenders ending up third on the timesheets, three tenths behind the pace-setting Ferrari 499P LMH and the Porsche Penske 963 LMDh.
