WEC Set For SA

The FIA has provisionally confirmed a round of the World Endurance Championship at Kyalami on 6 February 2021. The eight races making up the championship will be run in Europe, Asia, Middle East, Africa and America, allowing the WEC’s manufacturers, teams and partners true intercontinental visibility at well-established venues in key regions around the world. The historic but extensively redeveloped and upgraded Kyalami will join such popular and iconic tracks including Silverstone, Fuji, Sebring, Bahrain, Sebring and Spa-Francorchamps.  Six- and eight-hour races will feature ahead of the season finale, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in June 2021.

The FIA WEC 2020-2021 calendar (see below) will be submitted to the FIA World Motor Sport Council for approval in Geneva on 6 March 2020.
