Perhaps we'll see an additional Caddy for Hendricks in 2024? (an IMSA campaign will be more likely than a WEC one but nevertheless.)

It would be kinda cool if they came to Le Mans and then realised they wanted to try and win the thing overall. But I'd agree IMSA seems more logical for a full campaign.

They should feel right at home sharing a pit lane with Penske and Ganassi

Not advocating a Nascar driving crew although I'm sure putting some of the big names in for as many non clashing races (which with the cramped Nascar schedule will probably be almost impossible) will draw a crowd and sponsorship as a result of that.

NASCAR / IMSA are part of this so they might organize a free weekend? Nah, who am I kidding.

***Eight drivers are known to have tried the Porsche LMDh car to date. Based on information from the company’s factory LMDh director Urs Kuratle, who is at Spa, the test drivers so far have been Felipe Nasr, Dane Cameron, Frederic Makowiecki, Mathieu Jaminet, Kevin Estre, Michael Christensen, Laurens Vanthoor and Andre Lotterer.
Porsche test driver info via S365 - https://sportscar365.com/lemans/wec/...y-notebook-17/

A few more GT drivers than I'd assumed. But shows the depth of the testing programme to have got that many guys into the car already.

I'd missed this but Mathieu Jaminet is the Penske and Porsche GT reserve driver at Le Mans and turned some test day laps in the Penske P2.

I think that's further confirmation he's got a seat with Porsche next year. A valuable bit of Le Mans running too given he's not raced there since 2019.

Very much seems that way doesn't it.
I'm a fan of drivers, rather than cars, so driver announcements are more exciting that car unveilings, and I can't wait to see which Porsche GT drivers might get 'promoted', and who they'd hire from outside the Porsche stable.

makowiecki should be another driver since he's testing a lot, would be quite surprising if estre won't be picked up for the lmdh

I'll admit I don't pay much attention to the FE driver market, but according to this Antonio Felix Da Costa is going to become a Porsche driver next season.

And given he's pushing hard for FE and WEC to iron out their calendar clashes, I reckon he's got a seat lined up in the JOTA Porsche. Not exactly shocking news I know.

Hardly a surprise but Lambo have announced their first two LMDh drivers -

https://twitter.com/Lamborghini/stat...28752234680323

Caldarelli and Bortolotti

I always thought it was a shame we didn't see Caldarelli in an LMP1 earlier in his career. And Bortolotti was absolutely rapid at Le Mans this year in his P2 debut.

Wonder if any of the Audi drivers are under consideration at Lambo. Surely a few of them will find a berth somewhere with all these new programs.

Yeah it's pretty ironic that Rene Rast and Nico Muller were among the first to be announced of any '23 drivers and never even got on track.

Audi's GT3 offering seems to be in a gradual decline so I wonder if they are looking elsewhere, perhaps alongside WRT.
