I wonder if AF Corse will run these cars.
And imagine all the driver managers going crazy right now...

Years and years of speculation about a possible Ferrari team in WEC and finally it's gonna happen!! Just wow
So it will be and Hypercar just like Peugeot, Toyota and Glickenhaus. Audi, Porsche and Acura opted for the LMDH concept. Who knows how these two philosophy will clash together ...

I imagine F1 will now be magically able to avoid a clash with Le Mans

I think this is the natural consequence of f1 budget cap and 2022 PU freezing that will let f1 manufacturers and teams save a lot of money given also by considerable restrictions of available hours spendable on aero development as well.
2023 is still too far and a lot of things may happen in the meantime but ferrari stepping in LMH will likely obliterate VW brands influence on ACO making a really hard life for lmdh in WEC/LM.
Curious about the engine that will be used for the lmh, likely a f1 derivated enlarged V6 turbo.

I just hope it's a V12, it would be unforgettable magic and maybe the last one in history.
