Mercedes has admitted that its hopes of joining the new LMGT3 class in the World Endurance Championship next year are fading.
Stefan Wendl, head of customer racing at Mercedes-AMG, admitted that the German manufacturer’s attempts to secure entries for what is expected to be an oversubscribed class “so far look not so promising”. But he stressed that that work is still on-going to lay the groundwork for a two-car entry of Mercedes-AMG GT3s run by one of its customer teams.
Ford and McLaren have already announced their intent to race in LMGT3 with the Proton Competition and United Autosports teams respectively, which suggests they have been given assurances by the ACO and the FIA that their entries will be accepted. Those manufacturers would combine to form an 18-car grid of LMGT3s, which appears to be the number the organisers want for next year. Entries for the 2024 WEC close on 20 November.
