The 2013 WEC live on Motors TV

The ACO and FIA have come together to create, from 2012, the World Endurance Championship, which will be aired live on Motors TV. 

Eight rounds are on the 2013 World Endurance Championship schedule, including the 24-Hours of Le Mans, which is run independently by the ACO. The season kicks off with the 6-Hours of Silverstone and will also include six hours races at the Circuit of the Americas, Sao Paulo, Spa-Franchcorchmaps, Fuji Speedway, Shanghai and the Bahrain International circuit at Sakhir. In LMP1, Audi will defend its 2012 titles with the entry of two Audi Ultra Hybrids against a pair of Toyota TS030s and privateer team Rebillion Racing and Strakke Racing. In LMP2, there will be a dozen full-time teams. Among the contenders are Oak Racing with its Morgan Nissan, two Lotus T128s and Gulf Racing’s two Lolas.

 The LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am categorieswill feature international teams such as AF Corse and Krohn Racing with their Ferrari 459 Italias. Porsche will be represented by IMSA Performance, Manthey and Proton Competition. Larbre Competition will run a Corvette, while the Aston Martin factory team returns with the Vantage V8 driven by Darren Turner, Stefan Mucke and, on occasion, ex-Williams F-1 driver Bruno Senna.
