I still can't tell from the replays if something broke on him or if he went for a divebomb move without realising there was a car directly alongside.

If I was Toyota, I would can the Hypercar now, run the current P1 until September 2021 and then go LMDh. But Toyota makes weird choices. Gonna be their call as to whether we ever see a Hypercar or not.

For Toyota in-particular, LMP1 is a test bed for their own, designed and made, hybrid powertrain. The way the whole program is structured is that TMG is almost a sub-contractor to Toyota Japan, with the task of building a car to put Japan's powertrain into.

If Toyota HQ don't see any value in racing themselves anymore, and can't build their own hybrid system, I think they'll walk away rather than go to LMDh. The people at TMG want to go racing whichever way they can, but HQ will have no interest in LMDh if it's as restricted as it appears it will be.

Yeah modern Spa is all dedicated race track now, the last bits of public road got diverted around it in I want to say the late 90s? That's the last time I remember the hill down from La Source having road markings on it.

*E* Beaten.

It's a shame but totally the right call I think, there was no way to run it safely even with the spectator villages idea.
