Anthony Davidson – Toyota Racing No.8 (LMP1-H)
“We have been thinking about the championship for a while. Obviously Fuji was a massive plus for the team, particularly for Seb (Buemi) and me. We came here with 29 points lead and then we just missed out on making it 30 points yesterday. Today saw some more big points and we knew we couldn’t take too many risks in traffic today.”
Alexander Wurz – Toyota Racing No.7 (LMP1-H)
“A mega result for the team especially after a sensor problem at the start so at that time we never imagined there would be a 1-2. We are very pleased for a great team performance even though we couldn’t give the #8 car a run for its money today.”
Romain Dumas – Porsche Team No.14 (LMP1-H)
“We are very happy we have got on to the podium. We were close a few times but had small issues. We tried everything to get closer to the second Toyota but they were a little better than us for sure. But it was a perfect weekend for us and we had no issues so it is satisfying for us to be here.”
Nicolas Prost – Rebellion Racing No.12 (LMP1-L)
“We had very good pace in our car and we were very strong this weekend. We had a very small issue with the water bottle that cost us some time but we are very encouraged with the pace of the car which is great for the rest of the season.”
Olivier Pla – G-Drive Racing No.26 (LMP2)
“I ran wide at the start of the race and Alex (Imperatori) got through. Then I saw that he was slowing down and I just missed him. But in my mirrors I saw there was a big crash. I am glad he is ok and actually I was sorry because I was hoping they could take more points off Zlobin. Things are working well at the moment and we have high confidence in the team. Roman (Rusinov) and Julien (Canal) did really great stints and I am very happy for the G-Drive Racing guys tonight.”
Frederic Makowiecki – Porsche Team Manthey No.92 (LMGTE Pro)
“Our goal is to fight for the manufacturers’ championship. We picked up a lot of points this weekend and we must continue like this. We have been a little lucky after the problems for the Ferrari and Aston Martin but we are of course happy for this really special team result.”
Pedro Lamy – Aston Martin Racing No.98 (LMGTE Am)
“We found a very good race set-up this weekend but the Aston generally seems to be very strong here. It was a shame what happened to Darren (Turner) and Stefan (Mucke) car because we could have won both classes. The whole team did a really good job and my team mates were also fantastic today.”
