I think Norris might be a decent bet for the third teammate? Great friends with Max already and i believe he worked together with Fernando ages ago at the end of the McHonda period.
Regardless, this would be dynamite viewing and a massive win for the sport. With Aston finally deciding to enter their Valkyrie as well I guess I really should try getting into WEC for real.
Also raced the Daytona 24 with Alonso before/at the start of his F1 career
Oh right!
2024 is going to be a banner year in the top class, with a bunch of new cars, plus the new LMGT3 spec for the bottom class bringing in new manufacturers. And with 8 rounds now, you’ll have a terrible (great) time keeping up. And if you’re a week or so behind, just watch the full races online (youtube) for free.
And if you can’t get enough endurance racing, IMSA is shaping up to be a ton of fun next year too.
