Hertz JOTA and TF Sport announce driver line-ups
Two teams have today announced driver line-ups for next year’s FIA World Endurance Championship.
Hertz JOTA confirmed that Norman Nato (France), Phil Hanson (UK) and Callum Ilott (UK) will drive for the British squad in the WEC's Hypercar category next year. Nato and Ilott will drive the No. 12 Porsche 963 alongside previously confirmed Will Stevens. The No. 38 entry will see Hanson join Oliver Rasmussen in the cockpit, alongside a third driver who is expected to be confirmed soon.
Meanwhile, TF Sport has also revealed the line-up of its No. 81 Corvette Z06 GT3.R entry. Ireland's Charlie Eastwood was listed in the official entry list that was revealed last month but joining Eastwood will be recently-crowned LMP2 Champion Rui Andrade (Angola) plus Tom Van Rompuy (Switzerland) who makes the step up from ELMS to WEC. TF Sport will confirm the line-up of its No. 82 entry next week.
