Toyota were heading for a fourth successive overall victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans on Sunday with their hybrid Hypercars running first and second with four hours of the race remaining
The number seven GR010 car shared by Britain's Mike Conway, Japan's Kamui Kobayashi and Argentine Jose Maria Lopez was circulating a lap ahead of the Japanese manufacturer's eight car.
The Alpine A480-Gibson driven by Brazilian Andre Negrao and French pair Nicolas Lapierre and Matthieu Vaxiviere was in third place but four laps down. Kobayashi has now qualified fastest in four of the last five editions but he and his team mates, the reigning world endurance champions, have yet to win the greatest race on the sports car calendar.
