Toyota of Hartley, Hirakawa and Buemi with 78 and the others a very short distance. This race could allow for new leaders.

The Oddsmakers don’t have their favorites yet for this race and it’s not hard to see why. Although in Hypercar, the Alpine team seems to be one of the most solid, in Le Mans the best were the Toyotas, so it would not be surprising that their two cars are favorites. The other categories and drivers are unknown, and due to the nature of these races, anyone could be the winner.
