Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus, the team behind the SCG 007, has announced that they will not be returning to the FIA WEC’s Hypercar class next season. The team’s founder, Jim Glickenhaus, stated that the lack of funds to upgrade the car was the main reason for this decision. He believes that a significant investment would be required to keep up with the development of other manufacturers in the top class. Despite not achieving a race win in the WEC, the team had some impressive achievements over the past three seasons, including pole positions at Spa and Monza in 2022, as well as a podium finish at Sebring. However, the team feels that they cannot justify the expenses involved in staying competitive while also focusing on their road car business. Glickenhaus expressed pride in the team’s accomplishments and wished everyone well for the future of the sport.
