The WEC has revealed how the new Peugeot hypercar will be balanced against Toyota, Glickenhaus and Alpine on its WEC debut at Monza this weekend.
The Peugeot 9X8 will be able to use power from its front-axle motor generator unit at 150km/h in both wet and dry conditions compared with the Toyota GR010 Hybrid’s 190km/h.
The difference in the deployment speeds between the two four-wheel-drive cars in the field reflects the choices made by Peugeot and Toyota with regard to the size of tyres of their respective LMH challengers. “What simulations have demonstrated is that you get different deployment speeds with the different tyre sizes,” he said.The minimum speed at which an LMH can use power from its front-axle MGU has been moved from the technical regulations to the BoP for 2022 to allow for the advantages of four-wheel-drive to be mitigated.
