It would seem that a late decision by Japan regarding the program of its English subsidiary is the cause, and it is a huge surprise whose consequences could well shake up the entire endurance paddock since, in fact, its crew finds itself walk.
However, in this one, alongside Yonny Hernandez and very experienced Sébastien Gimbert, was also included Randy de Puniet who can easily be considered as THE Bol d'Or specialist, given the unequaled pace he possesses on the Var circuit.
A Bol d’Or without Randy de Puniet? Difficult to imagine from a sporting point of view.
