Former System 1 driver Daniil Kvyat believes Lamborghini can problem for victories within the World Endurance Championship in 2025 by upgrading the SC63 LMDh.

Lamborghini joined the Hypercar class of the WEC this yr with a single automobile entered on a manufacturing facility foundation by Iron Lynx and raced by Kvyat, Mirko Bortolotti and Edoardo Mortara.

The Italian marque’s greatest results of the yr is a Tenth-place end, achieved on the Le Mans 24 Hours centrepiece race in June in opposition to a bigger grid of 23 Hypercar entries.

Kvyat mentioned he was content material with the efficiency of Lamborghini within the WEC up to now, however confused that it wants to usher in new developments to the SC63 as a way to battle on the entrance subsequent yr.

He revealed that the race to get the automobile homologated in time for its debut within the WEC and the IMSA SportsCar Championship in March meant that not all components that went on the automobile have been optimised for efficiency.

Thus, updates – doubtlessly by invoking a few of the 5 evo jokers allowed to Lamborghini beneath the preliminary five-year lifespan of the SC63 – are vital over the winter break as a way to shut the hole to the frontrunners.

“There may be a whole lot of work to do, but it surely’s our first yr, we do not have to neglect it,” mentioned Kvyat.

“We had a really brief testing programme earlier than beginning the season. Lots of areas that needed to be homologated have been fairly uncooked and possibly not performance-optimised.

“We did a really clear Le Mans, which was excellent for the crew. And now our first Hyperpole [at Fuji] as a result of we now have all the time been lacking tempo [previously]. Lastly, we have been actually in a position to tick that field.  

“It means we will do it and I might say [think about] what we will do with enhancements. 

“Now we have to deliver updates after which we will battle for high 5 and wins. I hope. That is the aim, it is my goal. 

“I do not give reductions to anybody. I am demanding in that respect.”

The 2024 WEC will conclude with an eight-hour fixture on the Bahrain Worldwide Circuit, a observe recognized for its abrasive nature and high-tyre degradation.

Lamborghini had proven encouraging indicators on the earlier spherical in Japan with Kvyat qualifying the automobile inside the highest 10, however the 30-year-old is holding a lid on his expectations for the title decider.

“We are going to see. Once more, we’re sadly in a spot the place we can not say okay we’re in a position to do issues persistently, we’re in a position to carry out persistently. There are a whole lot of issues that must be analysed and so forth why the efficiency is there [at Fuji] and so forth. So we actually must be very cautious with our evaluation. 

“In fact, in Bahrain, we can not have too many expectations. I don’t count on something completely different when it comes to the efficiency bundle we now have. So zero strain.”
