Overview
- Ferrari’s Miguel Molina led the opening practice with a 2:02.955 in the No. 50 499P on a cool, slightly damp track before a late red flag ended the session early.
- Alpine responded in second practice with a one-two as the A424s topped the timesheets with a best lap of 2:01.816 after stoppages for debris and a stranded ASP Lexus.
- Toyota struggled in the first session with the No. 8 in 14th and the No. 7 in 17th, then moved one car into the top 10 in FP2 as the order shifted with improving conditions.
- The entry list features 17 Hypercars and 18 LMGT3s, with several drivers rejoining after earlier calendar clashes and Louis Deletraz replacing Alex Lynn in the No. 12 Cadillac for medical reasons.
- Live coverage now sits behind Eurosport, HBO Max and FIAWEC+, with only third practice streamed free on the WEC YouTube channel and the six-hour race running from 14:00 to 20:00 local time.
