The provisional entry list for the 2026 FIA WEC TotalEnergies 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps has landed, and it is exactly what you want from a Spa grid. Big names, serious depth, and plenty of storylines before the cars even reach the Ardennes. With 17 Hypercars and 18 LMGT3 entries, the field is packed enough to promise a proper fight all the way through the weekend.

In Hypercar, the headline names are all there. Toyota Racing brings its usual strength with Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Nyck de Vries in one car, while Sébastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryō Hirakawa form the second Toyota line-up. Ferrari AF Corse arrives with two factory 499Ps, plus the #83 entry for Yifei Ye, Robert Kubica and Philip Hanson. Peugeot, Cadillac, BMW, Alpine and Genesis all add even more weight to the class, which gives Spa the kind of grid strength that makes every stint matter.
There is also real interest in the newer combinations. Genesis Magma Racing has two cars entered, with André Lotterer, Luis Felipe Derani and Mathys Jaubert in one and Mathieu Jaminet, Paul-Loup Chatin and Daniel Juncadella in the other. Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA fields two V-Series.R cars, while BMW M Team WRT and Alpine Endurance Team each return with two entries of their own. Add Peugeot TotalEnergies into the mix, and the Hypercar race at Spa already looks like one of the most balanced rounds of the season.
LMGT3 is just as strong, and possibly even more fun to read through if you like a proper mix of experience, speed and personality. The class includes Garage 59, Vista AF Corse, Heart of Racing, Team WRT, TF Sport, Racing Team Turkey by TF, Iron Lynx, Proton Competition, Akkodis ASP Team, Manthey DK Engineering and The Bend Manthey. That is a grid with plenty of brand depth and driver variety, from bronze-rated regulars through to some very quick silver and gold names.

There are plenty of familiar faces in the GT field too. Jonny Adam is in the Heart of Racing Aston Martin line-up, Sebastian Priaulx appears with Proton Competition, José María López joins Akkodis ASP, and Richard Lietz is back in Porsche colours with The Bend Manthey. It is the kind of class that can swing on a tiny mistake, a smart pit call, or one strong late-race stint, which is exactly why LMGT3 has become such a good watch in WEC.
For Spa, the attraction is simple. It sits right in the heart of the WEC calendar and it always feels like a serious test before Le Mans. The track punishes mistakes, rewards rhythm, and usually gives you a race that turns at least once when nobody is expecting it. With this sort of entry list, that feels very likely again.
The provisional nature of the list means things can still move before the weekend, but on paper this already looks like another strong WEC entry for Spa. Fast cars, strong manufacturers, and a grid deep enough to keep the pressure on from the first lap to the last.
