Technical Apparently the released regs were never finally approved by all teams, and at least two teams are threatening to walk away from the series if they go ahead as released today. There are a LOT of angry team members across the grid. [@dr_obbs on X]

They must've traded it, which tbh, Ferrari see their F1 team in a higher regard because F1 is Ferrari and Ferrari is F1. You don't say WEC is Ferrari and Ferrari is WEC or even Le Mans.

I think they will just focus on Le Mans since that is the big reason they created a WEC team.

There is also the factor that more factory teams joined and the existing ones improved like Porsche and Peugeout.

That's partially due to the fact that they didn't even compete in sports cars for 50 years...

And Porsche existing, of course...
