Toyota's three-year dominance at Le Mans could be on the verge of coming to an end this week thanks to the efforts of WEC Hypercar rival Glickenhaus.

The No. 708 Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus 007 Hypercar, with Frenchman Olivier Pla, at the wheel topped Sunday's final test day at Le Mans ahead of this week's 89th running of the endurance classic.

For now, it's only bragging rights, but the performance of James Glickenhaus' team and its brand new turbo V8-powered contender undoubtedly raised a few eyebrows in the Toyota camp.

Track action at Le Mans will resume on Wednesday when everyone gets down to business for free practice and qualifying.
