Robert Kubica and Phil Hanson will defend their overall victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, having been announced alongside the already confirmed Yifei Ye in AF Corse’s satellite No. 83 Ferrari 499P for the upcoming FIA World Endurance Championship campaign.

Confimed on Tuesday, Kubica, 41, will continue for a third consecutive season in the Italian squad’s Hypercar entry alongside Ferrari factory driver Ye, who was already confirmed following the publishing of the 2026 WEC entry list.

Newly named Ferrari factory driver Hanson will again complete the lineup for the second straight year.

The trio finished second in the season-long WEC Hypercar drivers’ world championship on the back of the double points-paying Le Mans victory and a runner-up finish in the season-opening Qatar 1812km, which also paid out extra points.

Only Alpine has now yet to confirm the full lineup for its Hypercar effort, with two seats officially yet to be confirmed, although set to again go to Jules Gounon and Charles Milesi.

Two remaining seats, meanwhile, are left in LMGT3, with Heart of Racing team principal Ian James confirming to Sportscar365 last weekend that both Mattia Drudi and Zach Robichon will return to the No. 27 Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Evo.

James said they have not yet determined the remainder of the lineup for its newly-expanded second car, which will have FIA Bronze-rated driver Gray Newell.
