Ferrari won the centenary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans on Sunday, with Italian Alessandro Pier Guidi driving the last stint to the chequered flag, for the marque's first overall victory in 58 years.
The success after 342 laps of the Sarthe circuit in north-west France ended a run of five straight triumphs for Toyota in the world's oldest active endurance race.
"It's a great achievement and after so long, I think this one will go down in history for sure," said Calado. The Italian failed to get going from the final stop, the Ferrari stuck as Toyota mechanics watched on, wondering if a stunning victory might after all be snatched from impending defeat. "The last few stints were probably the best stints I've done. I just did qualifying lap after qualifying lap. I knew if we just tried to put them under some kind of pressure...we did everything, we threw everything at them."
Ferrari Formula One team boss Fred Vasseur and driver Charles Leclerc, neither of whom have had much to celebrate this season, joined the celebrations after the Italian marque's biggest success of the year so far.
