A new set of regulations ratified by the World Endurance Championship, the premier class of sports car racing, could allow manufacturers to enter racing versions of hypercars like the Aston Martin Valkyrie and McLaren Senna.
WEC is reaching the end of its current set of regulations, with the current 2018/19 super-season the penultimate one before the series undergoes a radical revamp. The series has suffered from the withdrawal of Audi and Porsche from the premier LMP1 category in recent years and is being dominated by Toyota, who two-time Fernando Alonso is racing for, which is leading the championship and won the prestigious Le Mans 24 Hours in June.
