Why did Audi leave the WEC?
[Audi](/manufacturers/audi) ended its LMP1-Hybrid programme at the end of the 2016 WEC season, citing budget reallocation following the Volkswagen Group's 2015 diesel-emissions investigation. The decision closed a 17-year top-class endurance racing programme that had produced 13 24 Hours of Le Mans wins, 17 WEC overall race wins and the most consistent LMP1 manufacturer effort in motorsport history. Audi has not returned to top-class endurance racing since, although the marque had announced a Formula 1 entry for 2026 with Sauber.
