The US entrant has revealed that a decision is still pending on its participation in the Fuji and Bahrain races in September and November respectively with its solo full-season Glickenhaus-Pipo 007 Le Mans Hypercar.
It hangs on the Glickenhaus Racing team finding sponsorship to move forward with its programme, according to team founder Jim Glickenhaus.
“We’ve made no decision; we can’t say we will be at Fuji and Bahrain because we are still working on it,” he told Autosport.
“What needs to happen is that we get a serious sponsor that allows us to do the rest of this year and move into 2024, as well as to develop an evo version of the car so that we can remain competitive.
“We are close to doing that, but we’ll either get the backing we need or we won’t.
“I think we have a huge potential that a sponsor would be able to exploit.“
Glickenhaus dropped out of the 2022 WEC this time last year, which followed its most competitive performance since joining the series in 2021 when it lost a clear chance of winning at Monza courtesy of a turbocharger failure.
It didn’t subsequently commit to returning for this year until December.
