World Endurance Championship 2024: How to watch, calendar and more as Jensen Button, Mick Schumacher feature
There is much anticipation around the 2024 World Endurance Championship (WEC), as Jenson Button makes his return to full-time racing in an expanded WEC season.
The 2009 Formula One World Champion, now aged 44, will get back behind the wheel of a race car in the WEC for the first time since 2019, where he made a string of one-off appearances in various categories following his F1 retirement.
But the Brit has pledged to race a full season for Hertz Team Jota and will drive one of two Porsche 963s alongside compatriot Philip Hanson and Dane Oliver Rasmussen.
Another F1 star is set to make the move to WEC with his debut in the 2024 series. Mick Schumacher, son of legendary F1 driver Michael, has joined Alpine.
This year’s calendar has been expanded to eight rounds where drivers will race across eight countries in four continents to mark the WEC’s 12th season.
