Ferrari feels it is still behind Toyota heading into this week's LeMans24 despite topping the official test day:
However, speaking ahead of Wednesday’s opening practice session, Giovinazzi said he is convinced that Toyota remains a step ahead of the Hypercar competition.
“It’s about experience, they have a lot more experience than us, especially at Le Mans. I think we have a fast car, we showed that in qualifying in the first three races [of the WEC season] but you cannot buy experience. Ferrari sportscar racing technical director Ferdinando Cannizzo backed up Giovinazzi’s assessment that Toyota remains favourite at the start of race week, while stressing that the race will not be a straight fight between the Japanese manufacturer’s GR010 HYBRID and the 499P.“For us the most important thing is reliability and in terms of reliability Toyota is the benchmark. We know they are the strongest; they can rely on years of experience.
