Sebastien Buemi set the quickest time for Toyota in a damp warm-up session ahead of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The track conditions had significantly changed from earlier session after overnight rain caused the track to be slippery.
Buemi set the quickest time in the #8 Toyota TS050 Hybrid with a 3:36:683, 2.6s ahead of the #7 Toyota in the hands of Mike Conway, with neither Rebellion or ByKolles posting a flying lap.
Giedo van der Garde was therefore third quickest overall and quickest in LMP2 with a best time of 03:43:022 ahead of Panis Racing’s Matthieu Vaxiviere and Eurasia Motorsport’s Nick Foster.
James Calado set the quickest time in the #51 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo with a best lap of 04:12:476, with Giancarlo Fisichella quickest in GTE Am.
The session saw no notable incident, although Nicki Thiim did experience an off-track moment in the #95 Aston Martin Vantage AMR, who overshot the corner at Mulsanne corner and briefly found himself driving outside the track and on public roads before rejoining and continuing on his way.
