Mike Conway's quiet WEC career ends at Monza

Mike Conway's final WEC race at Monza ended without a championship finish, as the Toyota TR010 Hybrid was not competitive at the Autodromo. Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Nyck de Vries could not close a 17-point deficit to their Toyota teammates in the Hypercar drivers' standings.

Conway retires with two world titles, two Le Mans victories and 20 overall WEC wins, placing him third on the all-time list since the championship's 2012 rebirth. Only Sebastien Buemi and Brendon Hartley have more wins among those counted here. He spent 13 years with the Cologne-based team, and was known as the quiet member of the driver roster.

Columnist's view: he is compared with the Audi trio of Andre Lotterer, Benoit Treluyer and Marcel Fassler, with Kobayashi and Jose Maria Lopez forming his Toyota partnership from 2018 to 2023.
