24 Hours of Le Mans 2016 - A dumbstruck podium

The astonishing end to the 24 Hours of Le Mans left everyone in a state of shock. Emotions ran high not only for the victorious Porsche team but for everyone else on the podium too.

Stéphane Sarrazin (#6 Toyota TS050 Hybrid, 2nd): “When I saw Kazuki slow down, I thought he was waiting for me so that we could do the last lap together.”

Oliver Jarvis (#8 Audi R18, 3rd): “It all feels a bit odd for the people at Toyota. One thing is sure: no one wanted the race to finish like that.”

Loïc Duval (#8 Audi R18, 3rd): “It was a very difficult race, a tough experience for us and, of course, for Toyota. The list of things that went wrong is too long to sum up here. We didn’t have the power or the pace.”

Lucas di Grassi (#8 Audi R18, 3rd) : “We’re making progress, we keep on fighting, but the team will be back even stronger to aim for the podium.”
