Yahoo Autos COTA return among 8 WEC races for 2024
The 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship calendar was revealed today at Le Mans, following its approval from the FIA World Motor Sport Council.
Next season’s schedule has a fresh look to it, with an increase to eight races and the inclusion of four circuits not on the 2023 calendar. During the season the WEC teams will visit the Lusail International Circuit in Qatar, Imola, Spa-Francorchamps, Le Mans, Interlagos, Circuit of The Americas, Fuji Speedway and Bahrain.
“The 2024 FIA WEC calendar is a mix of traditional motorsport venues and key markets that are important for our manufacturers, key stakeholders and partners,” said Frédéric Lequien, CEO of the FIA World Endurance Championship.
“It is always a challenge finding the right balance but with four new venues, two of which are completely new to the WEC, as well as four well-established races, we have created a good mix of old and new. Eight races across five different regions will also bring our series to an even greater audience, as well as building momentum throughout the year. Today’s announcement is yet again another indication of WEC’s very bright future.”
