Toyota is the only factory-supported team set to compete in the LMP1 class in 2018’s World Endurance Championship but it will face some competition from Ginetta.

The company announced its intention to build LMP1 prototypes for 2018 at the start of this year and has just previewed the finished racer while also confirming it has taken three orders from a privateer team.


The team in question is thought to be Manor and it will race two of its prototypes during the WEC season and the Le Mans 24 Hours. It will then keep the third car as a spare.
