Isotta Fraschini partners with Duqueine for 2024 WEC after Vector split
Isotta has partnered with Duqueine, a regular contender in LMP2 at the Le Mans 24 Hours and the European Le Mans Series. This collaboration comes after Isotta ended its association with the British Vector Sport team, which was originally set to run Isotta’s solo Tipo 6 Competizione LMH in 2024. Isotta decided to take a year off from the World Endurance Championship (WEC) after two seasons in LMP2, and Duqueine stepped in to work with Isotta and Michelotto Engineering to develop the Tipo 6 for the WEC in 2024. Isotta made this change due to financial reasons and is still open to working with Vector in the future. Vector expressed disappointment in the breakdown of their relationship with Isotta and the missed opportunity to showcase their drivers in the car. Duqueine, which has been racing in LMP2 since 2019, will make its WEC debut in 2024.
