After Ferrari’s brilliant victory in 2023, Porsche are looking to wrestle back top spot at Le Mans following a very impress🐼ive🏅 start to 2024.

That impressive start continued during𝕴 Sunday’s second day of testing ahead of this weekend, as Estre laid down a time of 03:26.907s.

Only one other car got within half a second of Estre’s time and that was t🐽he #4 Por🌄sche of Mathieu Jaminet, Felipe Nasr and Nick Tandy.

Speaking after the test, Estre said: “Our car ran like a dream from the very fir🍎st lap and 💙I immediately had a great feeling.

“During the test day we made further pr♏ogress as part of the normal setup work.

“At the start of the second session, I got two clear la𝓰ps in without slower traffic and my lap times reflected this.

“We’re defꦑinitely in a better position com💦pared to last year.”

Setting the #4 car’s 🧸fastest time was Jaminet, who finished tꦓwo tenths down on Estre’s time.

Jaminet said꧒: “I only drove a few laps today, but it’s a great feeling to be back in Le Mans. We tried out many different vehicle setups and our lap times looked impressive.

“We made it into the top four w🎃ith all three cars. Let’s hope that we can be that far ahead in all of next week’s 🐽sessions.”

Making it three factory Porsche’sꦿ inside the top four was the #5 car of Matt Campbell, Michael Christensen and Frederic Makowiecki.

While it was a busy test in terms of things to try, Christensen said everything t🎃hey planned went smoothly.

“It feels great to be back driving onও this very special Le Mans circuit⛄ at last,” said Christensen.

“The conditions were suꦯper today. Ou꧃r car handled beautifully, and we managed to tick off almost everything on our test list.

“However, we still need to try out a few more things in the practiceཧ sessions at the start of the race week. The test day is always critical – for us driver💟s and the whole team.”
