Yesterday, on its social networks, Team Jota published that three of its 2024 drivers would be announced today. These three drivers join Will Stevens in the N°12 Porsche 963 and Oliver Rasmussen in the N°38.

 

Unsurprisingly following his participation in the Bahrain Rookie Test, and as announced on several occasions here, Norman Nato will be defending the British team's interests in the WEC Hypercar class next year. If it's not official, the 31-year-old Frenchman should share the wheel of the #12 Porsche 963 with Will Stevens and a third driver, probably Callum Ilott, who recently took part in testing in Qatar.

 

 

Having competed in endurance racing in LMP2 (Racing Engineering, TDS Racing, WRT, AF Corse...) and LMP1 (Rebellion) after a successful career in single-seaters, Norman is now preparing to make his return to the to class of endurance racing. It's a wonderful opportunity for him, who was at his best during his time with the Swiss team, with two wins in Shanghai and Austin.

 

As a reminder, he will miss the Spa-Francorchamps 6 Hours due to a conflict with the Berlin ePrix, the German round of the Formula e World Championship, where he is defending the interests of Andretti Global, the title-winning team.
