19 cars entered for Bahrain rookie test
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

19 cars will take place in the FIA World Endurance Championship rookie test at the Bahrain International Circuit on Sunday.

The test returns for the first time since 2019, as it was not held in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

All three Hypercars have been entered, along with seven cars in LMP2, four in GTE Pro and five in GTE Am.

Toyota Gazoo Racing will run both of its championship-winning GR010 Hybrid Hypercars. Mike Conway will share the #7 car with Charles Milesi, one of two drivers officially nominated by WEC to take part in the test. The #8 car will be shared between Sebastien Buemi and seven-time World Rally champion Sebastien Ogier.

AF Corse will host Peter Mann, Simon Mann and Christof Ulrich aboard its works #51 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo alongside Alessandro Pier Guidi in the #52 car, while Porsche has nominated its full Bahrain 8H line-up.

Either Porsche or Ferrari will also welcome Laurents Hörr, the second officially nominated driver, to its ranks for the test depending on the outcome of Saturday’s season finale.
