Agreed. Everyone else will be trying to figure out their cars and Toyota can just keep doing what they do.

According to https://www.motorsport.com/wec/news/...ason/10404726/ it would have been Lopez to make way.
Which is completely understandable, as he's clearly been the weakest link for a while.

My first Le Mans was 2011 and I always wished I could have just made the jump one year earlier. That was a really nice looking grid that year.

Anyway, great to see Romain return to sportscars. That's the sort of big name announcement I was hoping we'd get. Didn't see it rumoured anywhere either which is cool that they kept it under wraps.

Great for Grosean, as it keeps him in race seat like many in Indy car.
There are two guys in formula 1 who need to exercise this option; Vettel and Schuey Jr.
Sebastian is recently retired and will soon need a challenge, well here it is.
Michael's dad did the same thing after his go with DTM and drove with Dauber/Mercedes prototype , to considerable success. Junior can run with the Ferrari Hypercar team and put some of that skill to good use.
No major loss here...

Vettel's future challenges are likely outside the car completely, he made it sound like he's fully hanging up the helmet and gonna spend time with family and on projects away from the track he is passionate about.

Ferrari does not need Mick screwing up their development with the field of sportscar drivers they already have in house. He has been an open wheel guy without much, if any endurance background. Why throw him in a car where he would be extra and not really gonna bring eyes to a WELL known program

More cross-over between the two series, incl. involvement from (academy) drivers, might provide additional marketing benefits to the team/brand.

Villeneuve is actually relishing the opportunity with Vanwall. He is excited to be driving in a series full time and cant wait to get back into it.
