2024 FIA World Endurance Championship

The 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship was the twelfth season of the FIA World Endurance Championship, a sports car racing series organised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO). The series was open to Hypercars and, for the first time, LMGT3 racing cars.

Calendar
On 9 June 2023, during the 2023 Le Mans weekend, the calendar for the 2024 season was announced. It contains eight races, including two completely new races and two returning races. The 1000 Miles of Sebring, 6 Hours of Portimão, and 6 Hours of Monza races will not return in 2024, with Monza not being held due to the track being redeveloped. The Imola event would later replace Monza as the Italian round on the schedule, while the series will make its first visit to Qatar to start the season, allowing hotter weather than Sebring. The 6 Hours of São Paulo, which was last visited by the WEC in 2014 alongside the Lone Star Le Mans round that was previously hosted in 2020 would also make their return to the calendar. == Entries ==
Entries
The number of entries was capped at 37 cars due to garage limitations at Imola and the Circuit of the Americas. Frédéric Lequien, CEO of Le Mans Endurance Management, outlined a goal to increase the grid size in future seasons.
