From this new update of the BoP, Alpine would have gone well. After receiving a boost of 11 MJ before the Hyperpole this Thursday, the French manufacturer did not escape the new adjustment from the ACO and the FIA.

After the Hyperpole, the governing bodies published an update of the Performance Balance which did not spare Alpine. This time, the Dieppe firm took a step back in terms of power with a loss of 32 MJ, going from 785 to 753.

Concerning the power level at different engine speeds of the Gibson V8 of the Almine, the losses range from 6 to 10 kW between 5 and 000 rpm.

In LMGTE Pro, Ferrari a obtenu gain de cause. « Trop loin » des Corvette et Porsche, les 488 GTE Evo italiennes ont gagné 0,02 de boost entre 4 000 et 7 100 trs/min. En Am, elles ont repris 0,01. De quoi redonner le sourire aux Transalpins en vue de la course ce samedi.
