The FIA World Endurance Championship could feature a reduced calendar with revised race formats next year, according to series boss Gerard Neveu, who has revealed that discussions are underway for an “evolution” to the globe-trotting championship.
Neveu said a number of options are on the table, including GTE qualifying races, longer and shorter main races, as well as a reduction to eight rounds, as part of cost-cutting initiatives ordered by the ACO.
“Do we continue with nine races or do we go to eight races or do we go to 10 races?” Neveu asked. “Do we finish by a race in the Middle East or another place, or do we do a bigger race at the end?
