Glickenhaus will contest its third consecutive season of the World Endurance Championship in 2023 with its 007 LMH race car<\/a>, competing in the series’ premier Hypercar class.<\/p>\n

Glickenhaus made the confirmation via a Twitter post<\/a> on Tuesday, ending speculation the American team will be absent this season.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Glickenhaus said it will field a single 007 for the entire season, and its dealer partner HK Motorcars will field a second 007 exclusively in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.<\/p>\n

Glickenhaus first entered the World Endurance Championship in 2021, the first season for the Hypercar class. At the time, Toyota was the only other manufacturer with a LMH race car, the GR010 Hybrid. Alpine was also present, albeit with a grandfathered A480 LMP1 race car.<\/p>\n

The team has seen little success in the sport, though it was looking good for a maiden win at the Monza round in 2022 until a failed turbo midway through the race ended any hopes of a victory.<\/p>\n

In 2023, Glickenhaus will face much more competition than in previous years. Ferrari is set to join the fray with its 499P LMH<\/a>, and Peugeot will be fully primed with its 9X8 LMH<\/a> following its participation in a handful of races last season. The Hypercar class will also see the entry of multiple LMDh race cars in the new season from the likes of BMW, Cadillac, and Porsche.<\/p>\n

The Glickenhaus 007 is an in-house-designed race car powered by a bespoke twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-8<\/a> developed by France’s Pipo Moteurs. Glickenhaus has also revealed a related 007S hypercar<\/a> designed for road use, though production will only happen if Glickenhaus receives a minimum of 24 orders.<\/p>\n

Following a Prologue event at Florida’s Sebring International Raceway on March 11-12, the first round of the 2023 World Endurance Championship will kick off on March 17 with the 1000 Miles of Sebring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
