TOYOTA GAZOO #racing won the 87th #LeMans 24 Hours with a one-two finish at the Circuit de la Sarthe following a dramatic final hour of the 2018-2019 FIA World #endurance Championship (WEC) season.
Sébastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima and #fernandoalonso, in the #8 #ts050hybrid, defended their #LeMans crown and secured the drivers' World Championship in the process, winning by 16.9secs from team-mates Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and José María López in the #7.
But those bare facts do not reflect the true drama of the closing stages, which denied the #7 what seemed a certain victory in front of 252,500 spectators.
