The appointment is for tomorrow at 3 p.m., when the curtain will rise on the 2025 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Anticipation is high especially because of what was seen in today's qualifying session with Yamaha playing a major role.
Indeed, the team formed by Hanika, O'Halloran and Fritz captured the spotlight, setting the best average time of 1'34"664, so much so that it was two tenths ahead of the Suzuki SERT. Fritz, who set the quickest time in 1'34"489, was on top form today.
However, the Suzuki is lurking followed by the Honda of the surprising Tati Team AVA6 Racing, able to get the better of the factory BMW squadron, led by Guintoli. The German bike picked up a gap of one second from the top.
Up at the top were also Honda FCC TSR as well as Kawasaki without forgetting Marc VDS, which is fielding among its riders Alessandro Delbianco.
On the other hand, as far as Stock is concerned, the best team was Moto-Jungle while 13th time in the category went to Matteo Ferrari, who will line up at the start with the Ducati V4 of WRS. Along with him are Ferrari and Butti without forgetting Akito Haga.
