EDIT: Anthony Davidson fastest middle sector

Toyota showing top speed? But its still early
Where can you get live timing showing sector times? Or can you?

We're already just 2,5 seconds off from GTE-PRO pole time of last year... so I'm starting to think thsy this year's fastest quali time could actually surpass or come close to the GT1 pole time of 2010... obviously the 2008 GT1 times will be untouchable for years to come though

You can't, it's just what we hear mentioned about sector times on RLM.

I tried RLM and it stops for me. Maybe because I'm in the U.S.? Davidson just went fastest with a 31flat, the times are definitely coming down.

RLM: Rain might already be at Le Mans, not a lot of times are improving.

I wish we did have sector times.

Davidson is probably Toyota's fastest driver, so it's not too exciting he's only a little faster then the least experienced Audi

If Toyota is running flat aero...it could be they are taking a page out of Peugeot's playbook and are going to play the fuel game. The gasoline hybrid is carrying much more fuel then the diesel hybrid, maybe to the point where it is almost unfair...we'll see.

Do you happen to have a handy link of the BoP for the GT cars at the 24 Hours? The FIA's website is labyrinthine to navigate.

I don't think we can assume anything. I don't think Davidson should have the 'fastest' claim yet either. Sarrazin might have something to say about that. And who knows how quick the #7 car will be. On the ASTON topic, I am glad they are fast, but the breaks they get may cloud their results.

Ooh, Larbre is now 1-2 in GTE-Am now that they got on track

There's definitely slowing down for everyone, ~10 seconds off the usual pace for almost everyone

However, 2nd Toyota up to 4th 3:33.720

LOL "For people who like boring motorsports, there's some F1 drivers here"

hoho, first lap for Strakka HPD is already 10th overall

3:33 from Nakajima. That isn't too bad for a rookie.

Rebellion's "petrol pole" of last year already surpassed by Toyota (and Audi)

90 minutes into testing and a gasoline car leads the time sheets. When was the last time you could say that

I think it's definitely raining, most people are slower than their fastest but the E-Tron Quattro is only 2 seconds off their fastest

Toyota wants pole ! Good to see they are optimistic. Definetly sensing alot more energy with the two Toyotas compared to the last few weeks!

Whoever is speaking for Toyota said that they want to focus on going fast because even if they try to focus on being reliable they'd probably run into problems anyways. So might as well be fast even if neither of the car finishes

I thought Ant was fairly open there. Interesting interview.

EDIT: And I wonder how many cars Audi and Toyota will bring to the 24 next year...
