In the latest World Endurance Championship (WEC) event, the 6 Hours Of Monza, Toyota Gazoo Racing, led by drivers Mike Conway, Jose Maria Lopez, and Kamui Kobayashi, emerged victorious over Ferrari. This triumph was achieved through strategic final pitstops during a race marked by shifting leads between Ferrari, Toyota, Peugeot, and Porsche. Despite facing penalties, the number 8 Toyota team managed to secure a fourth-place finish, later demoted to sixth. Peugeot also made its mark with a maiden WEC podium finish, clinching third place. In the LMP2 category, the Jota team achieved its first season victory with drivers Pietro Fittipaldi, Oliver Rasmussen, and David Heinemeier-Hansson.
