Acura will be racing its new LMDh in IMSA next year, but not in the WEC or in the Le Mans 24 Hours - a source of heartache for Albuquick:
The Portuguese driver has signed up for a repeat of his twin FIA World Endurance Championship and IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship assaults with the United Autosports and Wayne Taylor Racing teams respectively for 2023.
Speaking to Motorsport.com, Albuquerque couldn’t hide his disappointment that with no Acura at Le Mans, he will be competing for secondary honours in the French classic again. “This is why they did the regulations like this, so you can do both Daytona and Le Mans and maximise the manufacturers’ investment. When this doesn’t happen, you get disappointed.
He said how painful he has found it not to have had any opportunity to fight for outright honours at La Sarthe since then.
