Only the hardest of hearts would draw a cynical eye across the 2018 running of the most famous endurance race of them all. It doesn"t matter. Only the headline does: Toyota has won the Le Mans 24 Hours. The #8 Toyota Gazoo Racing TS050 hybrid driven across the line by Former F1 driver Kazuki Nakajima and aided throughout the course of 24 hours by, um, former F1 driver Sebastien Buemi and of course, current Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso, finished on top to give Toyota its first ever Le Mans victory. It also means Alonso is one step closer to the Triple Crown", having already won the Monaco GP and now Le Mans. "It"s a shame the 24 Hours of Le Mans only happens once a year," Alonso said after winning. "They should hold it every two or three weeks."
