WEC delays plans to expand full-season grid to 40 cars
According to the FIA and the ACO, the plan is to maintain the size of the entry in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) at 37 cars, the same as this year. They are still working on expanding the grid and aim to increase it in 2025. The number of cars is based on the available pit boxes at the Imola and Austin rounds in April and September on the 2024 schedule. The decision to increase the grid to 40 cars was deemed too complicated for refuelling. The split between the Hypercar and LMGT3 categories, the only two classes in the WEC next year, will be decided after the entry deadline on November 20th. It is expected that the full-season WEC grid in 2023 will consist of 19 Hypercars and 18 LMGT3 cars.
