2014 Calendar
The 24 Heures du Mans, final round of FIM Endurance World Championship
The Road Racing Commission was looking for a possible replacement of the Doha 8H by a round in Europe since few weeks. “We wanted to have a decision before the Suzuka 8 Hours,” says Paul Duparc Road Racing Commission coordinator. “We had high hopes based with a possible round in Estoril and were very close to offer you the final of the FIM Endurance World Championship in Portugal. To date, unfortunately, this event is still not fully financed. The organizers, the FMP and FIM therefore prefer not to include this event in the 2014 calendar. However looking for sponsors for this event allows us to be optimistic about the registration of an Endurance round at Estoril for the next seasons.”
The 24 Heures du Mans will therefore be the final round of the 2014 FIM Endurance World Championship.
