Le Mans Hour 1: Toyotas run 1-2
The 90th running of the Le Mans 24 Hours is underway with one hour of racing completed in front of large crowds and perfect warm and sunny conditions.
Toyota run 1-2 but the No.7 car driven by Mike Conway overtakes No.8 car of Sebastien Buemi after 45-minutes of racing.
Corvette Racing similarly run in formation at front of the LMGTE Pro category as Porsche and Ferrari give chase.
LMP2 sees the most drama with a first corner incident compromising two front runners – the No.31 WRT and No.22 United Autosports USA entries.
Hardpoint Motorsport lead LMGTE Am from Team Project 1 Porsche.
