The petrol LMP1s will have 3 liters more at Le Mans

After readjusting the balance of performance of the GTE before 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Committee ofEndurance de la FIA a décidé d’augmenter les capacités des réservoirs des LMP1 essence avant le double tour d’horloge sarthois qui se déroulera les 22 et 23 juin. Si les Audi R18 e-tron quattro conserveront un réservoir de 58 litres, ceux des Toyota passeront à 76 litres en profitant de trois litres supplémentaires.

Private stables will logically benefit from this increase. After seeing their tanks increase by five liters at the end of the last season of WEC, the Lola B12/60 Coupé-Toyota and the HPD ARX-03c of Strakka Racing will now be equipped with an 83-liter tank.

The Test Day of the 24 Hours of Le Mans will take place on June 9.
