While the glass is definitely full for 2023, I also think it's a little odd to miss the 100th anniversary race despite having a fully designed and built car essentially ready to go.

I'm not sure the budget taps are turned on in quite the same way for BMW as a couple of others. Just my sense.

Once again, forgive my ignorance, is there benefits to BMW running a season in IMSA before joining WEC, like is there the same homologation rules in IMSA?

Well, learning the car is the benefit I suppose. Plus we have now seen that the "locked in homologation" has some wiggle room in Hypercar, so possibly they want to see how the car performs on track before hitting Le Man?

I just assumed it was because it was driven by the North American region. They care about IMSA more than WEC. Obviously they care about Le Mans, WEC is just a necessary evil for them?
And as it is NA driven the way it is starting and being built up starts there for ease too. So no great plan, more just how it is. Could be wrong. As it is just an assumption. We tend to over think these things and this assumption certainly isn’t over thought! ![]() |

BMW North America finances the IMSA LMDH program and as such they will get the first two cars to compete in 2023.
2024 rumors are Team WRT and RMG running cars in WEC so we will see. |
