Defending champions Toyota and pole-sitters Ferrari were locked in battle after U.S. basketball great LeBron James waved the French flag to start the centenary 24 Hours of Le Mans on Saturday.
The number eight Toyota hypercar, with Sebastien Buemi at the wheel and an unchanged lineup from last year's winning crew, led the 51 Ferrari driven by Britain's James Calado by 4.6 seconds after the opening hour at the Sarthe circuit.
The safety cars came out after Jack Aitken crashed the 311 Action Express Cadillac at the first chicane exit on a damp opening lap and ploughed into the metal barriers, scattering debris.
