Slightly OT but not completely: I have the suspicion that this is Lance Stroll's way out of F1 while saving face.

Great to see them planning on racing in both WEC and IMSA too. And OP that was my first thought as well (about Lance).

No hybrid unit, tough, so basically competing with Glickenhaus.

That's exciting. Love seeing so many different manufacturers competing in the top class. And I didn't know they were making a new GT3 car for next year, so that's cool.

2024 will be Lance's last season on F1
