38 cars will take part in the 6 Hours of Monza, which will mark the first time the FIA World Endurance Championship has raced at the iconic Italian venue.
If all entered cars make it to the event, it will mark one of the largest grids for a WEC round outside of Le Mans. Currently, the record is held by the 2012 Six Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, which featured 42 cars.
Five cars have been entered into the Hypercar class, as the second Glickenhaus 007 will compete in the race in preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Driver line-ups for the two American cars are yet to be determined.
They are joined by the pair of Toyota GR010 Hybrids, and the lone Alpine A480-Gibson.
In LMP2, the regular field is joined by Risi Competizione. The American team fields the #82 ORECA 07-Gibson in preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with Ryan Cullen, Oliver Jarvis and listed as drivers.
The GTE Pro field remains at four with two entries each from Ferrari and Porsche, while an impressive 17 cars are set to do battle in GTE Am.
This is a result of several teams entering the six-hour enduro in preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Kessel Racing’s #57 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo for Takeshi Kimura, Mikkel Jensen and David Fumanelli, will also race at Monza following the upcoming round at Portimao.
Meanwhile, the grid is also boosted by the arrival of the #61 AF Corse Ferrari 488 GTE Evo for Christoph Ulrich, Simon Mann and a yet-to-be-confirmed third driver.
Inception Racing is also kicking off its Le Mans preparations at Monza with the #71 Ferrari for Brendan Iribe, Ollie Millroy and Ben Barnicoat.
Finally, Rinaldi Racing have entered the #388 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo for Pierre Ehret, Christian Hook and Jeroen Bleekemolen.
