Toyota, Glickenhaus and Alpine will head up the new hypercar era in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) as the entry list for the 2021 season has been unveiled.

Five entries have been confirmed for the hypercar category along with the strongest LMP2 grid in the history of the season.

Toyota will continue with its six drivers from the 2019/20 season with its hypercar programme and two entries. Glickenhaus will also enter two cars into the top class with Ryan Briscoe, Gustavo Menezes and two-time Le Mans winner Romain Dumas confirmed as part of its line-up. However, there is no sign yet of ByKolles’ 2021 hypercar entry.

Alpine has moved up to the top class with one entry, having taken over Rebellion’s LMP1 car, running it this year as a grandfathered car.
