Ogier set a best time of 1m50.647s, admitting that he made an error on what should have made his main effort with fresh tires. That was just under two seconds away from Toyota regular Mike Conway, just over a second and a half off Buemi and one second slower than Toyota’s other rookie – 20-year-old Frenchman Charles Milesi, who had been part of Team WRT’s LMP2 title-winning line-up this year.
He needs loads more seat time; as the article mentions, he needs to get in a car and test/race, preferably a prototype, but a GT would still be better than no drive.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
