BMW's absence from sportscar racing’s top flight will end this weekend at the Daytona24 Hours. gazzasportscars looks at a programme focused on IMSA for now, but which also has one eye on Le Mans ⬇️
BMW is back, shooting for outright honours in the big sportscar races after an absence of nearly a quarter of a century.
The German manufacturer’s attempt to follow up on its Le Mans and Sebring successes of 1999 with the V12 LMR begins at this weekend’s Daytona 24 Hours with a new LMDh prototype called the M Hybrid V8. It won’t be back at the Le Mans 24 Hours until 2024. And the reason for that can at least partially be explained by an ultra-tight timeline for a project described internally as a “zero error programme”.
