Well yes there are loads of teams intending to be in WEC but as yet it is still really only toyota. over the years loads of intentions do not actually result in real entries.

Not wanting to be forgotten amid all the other car launch news, Acura have released some pics of their DPi wearing pyjamas.

Of course that's the first option for these bigger teams rather than having to find funding themselves.
I suppose hiring a team that already has employees and equipment might be a lower cost of entry point for a manufacturer that doesn't currently have a race program. That is how all the dpi teams are currently operated in IMSA. I'm still waiting to see how many private teams will be on the grid with purchased cars in a couple of years. So far it has only been Porsche and Lambo that have indicated the desire to sell cars, right?

hope it's a placeholder render... the car looks just like a longer arx-05... same frontal section, and that full size fin is quite strange considering none is going to use it anymore for LMH/lmdh

Worth checking this out from DSC. Main takeaway is the possibility of another unnamed manufacturer programme lurking in the background.

'***Recent paddock rumors have linked Iron Lynx with the confirmed Lamborghini LMDh program. But team co-founder Andrea Piccini has said that the Italian organization is “working on many potential deals” and denied that an agreement has been reached.

***Piccini told Sportscar365: “The reason why we entered LMP2 with Prema is to be able to be in LMDh or LMH. I think we have to be ready quite soon. We have to take a decision in the next month. For now, we are looking around at all the possibilities to try and have the best option for the future.” Piccini is adamant that Iron Lynx would only get involved as a factory team.'

If WRT do get the BMW LMDh and continue with the R8 I won't be complaining, but I don't see it.
lol if only there was a manufacturer that's looking to join in 2024 and has no team to run their factory cars yet, one that has links to Audi's sportscars even

I like how front section is perfectly integrated with the style of the car looking more like a road car bonnet than the usual nose+diveplanes.

Apart from this specific overhead view (no helicopter shots for me then...) I like it. The full-width grill sets off the rest of the styling. I don't see anything else unusual otherwise.

Edit - The latest two Mbedded videos have some more info on the internals than in the press release. Episode 6 in particular goes into quite a bi of detail about the engine.

I think it looks very nice from any angle. With all the preparation they've put in, they should be up there. Can't wait to see how it gets on in competitive anger
