United Autosports will be heading into the 2024 season with a long racing history with McLaren and a win at the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMP2 class.
“We are very proud and grateful to see the confirmation of the two WEC entries for United Autosports and McLaren; proud to be representing McLaren in a world championship and, of course, for their return to the Le Mans 24 Hours, and grateful because we know the success of the WEC has increased demand for places on the grid,” said Richard Dean, CEO of United Autosports. “This is a show of faith from both the WEC and McLaren in our project and we are determined to repay that faith with results on track.”
The first round of the 2024 World Endurance Championship season takes place on March 2 in Qatar, with the headline French endurance race starting on June 15. There, McLaren will field at least one more 720S GT3 EVO with customer team Inception Racing.
