He did say that their simulations have the Lancia as slower than the TS-040, but that doesn't mean that in a players hands the LC2 couldn't be faster. I just finished the series and LM was interesting. The Toyota definitely accelerated faster out of the corners and pulls harder on the top end (vmax 258mph vs 254 for the Lancia) but the real interesting bit is the places where the Lancia is faster: tetra rouge (and the last bit of Dunlop) and, holy hell, Porsche curves. Way, way faster through there, and much easier to drive. The aero grip is night and day between the two cars. The Toyota is ultimately faster, though.
