This year I am more interested in the WEC than in F1, although it has the BOP, I find the WEC much more attractive today than F1, plus the fact that there are so few races compared to F1. It makes the expectation in each of them grow. Also for a motorsport fan, seeing different engines, twin turbo, single turbo, different displacements, all-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, different sounds, make today the Championship chosen by the Brands to participate in. Even in 2025 we will hear a V12 on the tracks in a TOP FIA category!!! This is unbeatable!

They also really need to work on not locking up the brakes, that threw several of their races out the window. I'm definitely rooting for them though

Aston racing next year. As for McLaren who knows, Zack Brown has said they have been thinking of entering for the last few years. And Bentley is a no go, they don't run any of their GT3 cars anymore and then would it even be good for them to join as I am not sure how much the Bentley market cares for racing. Also the fact the VW group already has Lambo and Porsche, I don't think they want to add another, and if they were going to Audi is arguably the better choice for marketability and historical reasons.

​@Calibra95 They aren't allowed too, due to BoP any car that is going to be run at Le Mans has to be a car entered in the full WEC season so Acura wouldn't be able to in Hypercar and nor would Mercedes and Audi in LMGT3. Only LMP2s are allowed because all ELMS, AsLMs and IMSA teams use the Oreca 07 except for Sean Creech Motorsports in IMSA which uses the Ligier JS P217.

The problem continues to be twofold: in profile, fans can’t tell the difference in the cars. They all look spec. 2nd, neither IMSA nor the WEC/FIA let them race. All finishes are contrived with the absurd yellows, pit rules, gathering the classes,etc. Teams cannot have strategies anymore. Love road/sports car racing but the sanctioning bodies need to get the hell out the race. Too many damn rules and regs

That’s mostly due the fact that most of the manufacturers are choosing the cheaper lmdh rules set.

In part i agree. Mostly with the class gathering on yellows. At the start of the night Peugeot had almost a minute of advantage in the leading, with the chance of the faster Toyotas, Ferraris and Caddys to catch up if conditions on the track improved (it rained, that gave some advantage to the Peugeots), after the 7 Toyota crash, thanks to the class merge, all that advantage was lost, allowing the other teams to surpass the Peugeot and leaving them in fourth place very quickly, forcing them to try to keep up ending in the crash at the first chicane, plus ending their chances. What if those new merging rules wouldn't had happen?. The night in LM last year was amazing but it could had been better if the Peugeot mantained the advantage and the others worked hard to catch up. Instead of two brands it could had ended with four brands battling for the win in the morning hours.

WEC is not like F1, which can run 23 races in one year. Maximum amount of races for WEC would be around 10. Keep in mind that not all tracks are suitable for WEC LMH. Barthurst in Australia would be nice but not doable due to it being so narrow, and some tracks do not have enough of pit boxes for the teams, especially since LMH category is growing massively

​@@guybeingaguyWEC has as much as racing as F1 with the current amount of races. Keep in mind a WEC race is at least 3 times as long as your normal F1 race, even though teams have way less money compared to F1. There are also many different endurance racing championships that shouldn't clash else teams / drivers can't do both.

I can´t wait for the season to start. Btw, on the entry list BMW WRT have 2 drivers. Sheldon van der Linde on the #20 and the brother of Laurens (porsche) Dries Vanthoor on the #15. Will we see the brother's fight on track? 🫣

Indeed! BMW do have those two drivers and Robin Frijns also confirmed for an LMDh drive. But unlike Lamborghini or Alpine, their lineups have yet to be fully confirmed. Glad you’re looking forward to the season! It’s set to be incredible 👏
