Toyota makes it five wins in a row

11–12 June 2022

News from Le Mans that month:

12/6/2022 – Toyota Gazoo Racing wins the 24 Hours of Le Mans for a fifth consecutive year. The #8 GR010 Hybrid, driven by Sébastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryo Hirakawa, completed 380 laps to take the win.

12/6/2022 – It's Toyota's second win under the new Hypercar regulations, which replaced LMP1 in 2021 – meaning the five-year streak spans two entirely different rulebooks (TS050 Hybrid, LMP1, 2018–2020; GR010 Hybrid, Hypercar, 2021–2022).

12/6/2022 – Porsche's GT Team celebrates success in the LMGTE Pro class the same weekend.
