Welcome! As a t*rd sandwich of a year comes to a close - here's a new thread to hopefully provide what it says in the title - a place for good news and excitement as new manufacturers are rumoured and hopefully commit to sportscar racing at the highest level in WEC and IMSA.
Will Hypercar and LMDh balance perfectly? Not sure - but let's leave it for another thread.
Audi's announcement last week generated a mere whimper on the forum so this could be a place to talk about that. Looks very customer focussed which is super exciting if we see multiple teams getting involved.
Listening to Graham Goodwin on the MP Podcast - they are still firmly expecting Porsche to come, possibly with an announcement coming soon.
EDIT: It's already in the French press (via forumer Tique) -

Honda and Hyundai strongly rumoured. Plus the pinch of salt Ferrari rumours that won't go away.
Hopefully Alpine will convert this grandfathered P1 effort into something that actually fits the new regs at some point too. Not sure how long the Glickenhaus commitment is but it's super exciting if you ask me.
I know we've been hurt before - but is anyone else seriously excited about this? Grids could be huge in only a couple of years...
