Toyota reckons customer teams could handle running LMH machinery in FIAWEC, despite increased complexity over the LMDh cars ⬇️
The World Endurance Championship will allow the new breed of LMDh cars to compete against LMH machinery in the Hypercar class from 2023 as part of a convergence process with the IMSA SportsCar Championship.
By contrast, no manufacturer has so far managed to ink a deal to supply an LMH car, which must feature a bespoke chassis and powertrain as part of regulations that allow greater technical freedom than LMDh. Asked if it was possible for a customer team to run an LMH car such as the Toyota, Ferrari or the Peugeot, the Japanese marque’s technical director Pascal Vasselon said: “It's definitely possible.
Asked if running an LMH car would be more expensive than LMDh, Vasselon said: “Not much, no. The LMDh car has proved to be a bit more expensive than expected. And in the end it should not be that different.Photo by: Richard Dole /“At the moment when you see the testing intensity of [some manufacturers], for sure it's a lot of budget.
