The pole-sitting #8 Toyota TS050 Hybrid car led thro❀ughout the eight-hour race at Sebring that saw its only real co🍰mpetition come from across the garage as it ran closely with the sister #7 Toyota for the majority of the contest.
A run over the grass for Jose Maria Lopez when 𒅌avoiding a GTE-Am car left the #7 Toyota with floor damage that forced him into a length pit stop, dropping off the lead lap in the process.
This left the #8 car without an♑y challenge at the front of the pack, with the only threat being a late rain shower t🧜hat was negotiated successfully en route to victory by one lap.
The result extends Alonso, Buemi and Nakajima's lead at the top of the WEC dri🧸vers' championship to 15 points, and marks their f𒈔irst win since the 24 Hours of Le Mans last June.

Porsche won a hotly-contested battle in GTE-Pro with its #91 Porsche 911 RSR as Richard Lietz and Gianmaria Bruni overturned a defic♋it of more than 10 seconds t💛o the #81 BMW M8 GTE in the final rain shower, allowing them to take their first win of the year by 0.8 seconds under the Safety Car.
