Al igual que ocurriera en el ensayo anterior, previo a la prueba de clasificación para las 1000 Millas de Sebring, el cordobés José María López, dominó el tercer ensayo, con el Toyota TS050 Hibrid, al establecer un neto de 1m41s448/1000, en el entrenamiento que se disputó durante 60 minutos y postergar por 653/1000 a Fernando Alonso, con el Toyota TS050 número 8 y entre ambos, librarán una verdadera “batalla” para quedarse con el mejor registro, para largar mañana la competencia, pactada desde las 17 (hora Argentina) y que tendrá una extensión de alrededor de cinco horas.
