Three titles, one Temple of Speed: How to watch the FIA WEC season finale at Monza

  • Round 8 of 8: The 2026 FIA WEC campaign concludes at Monza on 6-8 November, 2026
  • Three of the four titles remain to be decided
  • Toyota clinched the Manufacturers’ crown with a one-two finish in Barcelona
  • The Japanese marque’s #8 entry leads its sister #7 crew by 17 points in the Hypercar Drivers’ standings, with no team orders
  • Mike Conway will contest his final professional race
  • Race start: 11:00 CET, Sunday 8 November, live on FIAWEC+

Toyota is already in possession of the Manufacturers’ crown, and at Monza, the Japanese automotive giant’s two crews will fight it out for Drivers’ glory, with Mike Conway looking to sign off his career in the #7 TR010 Hybrid with a bang.

Team Principal and driver Kamui Kobayashi has confirmed there will be ‘no team orders’, setting the scene for an intriguing duel for honours as the two Toyota trios compete tooth-and-nail for the Drivers’ championship.

Add in two further title battles in LMGT3 and a three-way scrap for second place among the Hypercar manufacturers, and the season finale has plenty left to resolve.

KOBAYASHI PROMISES ‘NO TEAM ORDERS’ AS #8 AND #7 TOYOTAS BATTLE IT OUT FOR DRIVERS’ HONOURS

Toyota arrives at Monza with the Manufacturers’ title already in its pocket. The crown was sealed last time out in Barcelona, although not in the way Saturday had suggested. Genesis achieved the first pole position in the South Korean marque’s short history, only for rain before the start to turn Sunday into a different race altogether. On a wet Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Sébastien Buemi took the #8 Toyota to the front and the car stayed there for most of the six hours.

Early in the second hour, Nyck de Vries passed Miguel Molina’s Ferrari to install a Toyota one-two, and from there, they simply drove away, going on to take the chequered flag in close formation, the #8 just 0.583s clear of the #7, with the #50 Ferrari of Molina, Antonio Fuoco and Nicklas Nielsen almost 40 seconds back in third. That secured Toyota its eighth FIA WEC Manufacturers/Teams’ title – its fifth in six seasons in the Hypercar era. For Monza, though, the more telling number was the gap between its two crews: 10 points going into Barcelona, 17 coming out.

WHAT IS AT STAKE IN THE 6 HOURS OF MONZA?

Three of the season’s four titles will be decided in Italy – the Hypercar Drivers’ crown and both LMGT3 battles. With the Manufacturers’ spoils already Toyota’s, its Hypercar rivals are fighting over second place.

  • Hypercar Drivers’ title: Toyota vs. Toyota. The #8 of Sébastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryō Hirakawa leads the #7 of Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Nyck de Vries by 17 points (114 to 97). Team Principal Kobayashi, who drives the #7 himself, has ruled out team orders. A top five finish would be sufficient to seal the deal for the #8, whatever the #7 does. Conway, twice a world champion, bows out after this race.
  • Hypercar Manufacturers – the fight for second. Toyota is already champion, but BMW (154 pts), Ferrari (130 pts) and Cadillac (118 pts) are all still chasing runner-up honours.
  • LMGT3 Drivers’ and Teams’ titles: three manufacturers, four crews. TF Sport’s #33 Corvette leads on 92 points. Manthey’s #92 Porsche (74 pts) – triumphant in Barcelona – is targeting a third straight LMGT3 crown, while the sister #34 Corvette (70 pts) is still in the hunt and Team WRT’s #69 BMW (66 pts) needs a perfect weekend.
