Apparently I was mistaken, Toyota weren't slower than last year, it's just that they only improved by 1.5% per lap rather than 2% for Audi and 4% for Porsche.
That's huge for ACO to manage. Anything more than 1% across the board means that the restrictions need addressing.
Life's too short to drive bad cars.
Yes indeed, Toyota was faster than last year but Audi and (especially) Porsche improved so much that they left Toyota for dead. In fact the 919 was theoretically capable of turning 3:14s, should they have the need to do so.
Lack of charisma can be fatal.
Visca Catalunya!
Spirit of the Race goes to Nick Tandy. Seems reasonable.

Stupid pair of twelve-hour days at work sapped my will to watch, though I did check the live timing every few hours; seems like a good race.
I'm pretty disappointed with the Japanese's showing in P1. Hopefully next year they can bring the fight to the Germans.
"Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
"No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"
By the way, the best thing about this year's Le Mans race is that a tractor didn't win!
