Isotta Fraschini partners with Duqueine for 2024 WEC after Vector split
Isotta has partnered with Duqueine, a regular competitor in LMP2 in the Le Mans 24 Hours and the European Le Mans Series. This collaboration comes after Isotta ended its relationship with British team Vector Sport, which was supposed to run its Tipo 6 Competizione LMH car in 2024. Due to financial reasons, Isotta made the decision to change teams. Isotta’s motorsport boss, Claudio Berro, mentioned that Duqueine came with a sponsor to provide support, which was crucial for a small company like Isotta. While the decision was not easy, Isotta remains open to working with Vector in the future. Duqueine, part of a larger group specializing in automotive and aerospace industries, will collaborate with Isotta and Michelotto Engineering to develop the Tipo 6 for the WEC in 2024.
