Vanwall to change engine suppliers for WEC Hypercar in 2024

Team boss Colin Kolles has announced that the non-hybrid LMH team will be replacing the current 4.5-litre Gibson V8 engine with a turbocharged unit for next season. The new engine is a proven and reliable unit with sufficient power. The Gibson engine was unable to reach the maximum power level allocated to the Vanwall in the Hypercar Balance of Performance, resulting in a power deficit during races. The team, now under the Vanwall banner, is confident in their chassis and compliance with regulations. Retaining drivers and potential oversubscription in the Hypercar field for 2024 are minor concerns.
