Lamborghini wants to be at Le Mans next year - the journey starts at the Goodwood Festival of Speed next month...
Say what you like about the WEC and the drawn-out introduction of its new Hypercar category, but Ferrari’s return to Le Mans after 50 years - and its shock, fairytale win - triggered more mainstream coverage than the event had enjoyed in years. Speaking to the BBC, WEC boss Frederic Lequien, said:"It's a return to the history of Ferrari competing against Peugeot, Porsche and Cadillac. We have the best car manufacturers in the world. Never in history has endurance racing been so bright.
While not mentioning any specifics - the full details of the LMDh car remain under wraps - we can only hope that this sentiment applies to the LMDh car’s twin-turbo V8. Lamborghini has already identified the new engine as the first developed in-house by Squadra Corse, and, alongside the obligatory Energy Recovery System, it effectively replaces the familiar V10 which has been deployed elsewhere in the firm’s race cars.
Elsewhere, the brand remains fundamentally tied to its owner. Next in its roll-out of electrified products is the launch of the hybrid, a model that’s already been caught testing and that we expect to see before the end of the year. It will retain its own V8 - the widely shared 4.0-litre unit - although we don’t yet know what level of performance Lamborghini has sought from the battery-electric version.
