The finale of the FIA World Endurance Championship took place with the 6 Hours of Bahrain. This is how you saw the action
Toyota took the fight to Audi and won in Bahrain, their only ‘proper’ win of the season after their rain soaked, safety car win in Japan.
Congratulations to our @Toyota_Hybrid team for their very well-deserved win in #Bahrain! #FIAWEC #6hBAH #Toyota pic.twitter.com/K5v8BTNZGc

Or if you like the GTE Pro version. This result also propelled the AF Corse Ferrari to the title
Thanks for everybody. What a great feeling to win but also proud to race with the best drivers. @FIAWEC #6hBAH pic.twitter.com/wFn6jt7tIN

Toyota may have led LMP1 but Nissan dominated LMP2
Another amazing job by the #PoweredbyNissan teams makes it a Nissan 1-2-3-4-5-6 on the grid for the @fiawec #6HrsBahrain. Pole for Pecom!

The race is go. No one would have thought that both a Toyota AND an Audi would retire. Rebellion then missed their chance at an outright podium after a mechanical issue. That saw the LMP2 winner take a podium

This is likely
Is @alex_wurz the unluckiest man in @FIAWEC 2013 and will @AussieGrit take over that crown ?! @specutainment

It was a terrible race for the GTE Pro Astons. Both cars retire and lose the Championship
Shame for @PedroLamyRacing @RichieStanaway @BSenna as the 99 Aston is pulled into the garage #FIAWEC

We love 8Star too and now Enzo is in high demand given his Bronze driver rating
We love @EnzoPoto22 here at Endurance Sportscar, his @8starmotor team are on course for the teams championship in GTE-Am #FIAWEC

Don’t you hate it when you lose things?
MISSING: Displaced bollard from T7… though, we may have just found it… #WhereDidItGo #6hBAH
— FIA WEC (@FIAWEC) November 30, 2013
But I think we found it!
This might explain why @Sebastien_buemi was feeling a vibration at the end of #FIAWEC Bahrain pic.twitter.com/ONukEtaxrv

It didn’t stop the team from winning…
Great to finally get my first win with @Toyota_Hybrid & first #FIAWEC victory! Thanks to the team & @Sebastien_buemi & @Steph_Sarrazin
