No - no they weren't
They expressed interest in running one - it was clear from the start they did not have remotely enough budget and were counting on fullsome support from a single sponsor that told us immediately that it wasn't happening |

Of any manufacturer that could come in I think they are the most likely to go LMH. They are a little like Ferrari like that in that they could use old F1 resource that isn’t needed with the budget cap. Although their facilities are quite the same. However LMDh is very attractive to do. There is still stuff to do and it is nice a simple to get into. This makes it the most likely if they do enter. |

Ferrari uses the same tub as Caddy and BMW, so the freedom of lmh is mostly just front wheel drive. You can win wec races with an lmdh so why not start with a crash tested tub and make it your own?

I know it's Dallara but I thought I read it was a Ferrari design and Dallara was the constructor?

It's a Ferrari design built by Dallara, though it's been said that the Ferrari tub has more similarities to the Dallara GTP tub than Ferrari are willing to admit to...

LMH surely gives freedom with hybrid that LMDh doesn't but I think there are other reasons why specific manufacturers or teams went that way (maybe even more important):
