Toyota denies "sandbagging" in Spa WEC: “We are faster than last year”

Toyota's two cars failed to reach Q2 in Friday's World Endurance Championship qualifying at Spa-Francorchamps, finishing 12th and 16th fastest, just three weeks after claiming their 50th WEC victory at Imola. Technical Director David Floury denied accusations of 'sandbagging,' rejecting suggestions the team was deliberately hiding their true pace ahead of the Le Mans 24 Hours. Floury acknowledged the disappointing result but insisted the car is performing better than it did at the same circuit last year.
