Fresh off taking an LMP2 class victory at Petit Le Mans with CrowdStrike Racing by APR, he will contest his fifth season in the IMSA season with a full-time commitment with United Autosports.
The 38-year-old Briton spent three races with the team during this past year in the World Endurance Championship, scoring a podium in his first race with the squad at the 6 Hours of Portimao - simultaneously winning the Goodyear Wingfoot award which is presented to the driver with the fastest average lap times over a double stint in the LMP2 class.
It comes as the United Autosports WEC squad will switch to IMSA in 2024, after the series announced there would be no P2 class in the world championship next season.
“It’s great to be part of United Autosports’ first full season in IMSA next year,” Hanley said. “I had a great feeling with the team in the few races I did this year and I’m really excited to see what we can achieve in 2024.”
Hanley, a two-time starter in the Indianapolis 500, will team up with Bronze-graded Ben Keating for a run at the LMP2 championship title.
