"Bosch is much more than a partner — they are a cornerstone of the Hypercar era. Their engineering expertise, particularly in hybrid technology, has been instrumental in shaping a competitive, efficient and cost-controlled framework that benefits the entire grid. Renewing this partnership for 2026 and 2027 is a natural step, and a strong signal that the most innovative industrial players see the FIA WEC and the 24 Hours of Le Mans as the ultimate arena to demonstrate what technology can achieve."
Frédéric Lequien, FIA WEC CEO, added:
“Bosch has been a loyal and long-standing partner to the FIA World Endurance Championship, and we are delighted and proud to be extending that relationship for at least another two years.
