# Mike Conway retirement and WEC season finale at Monza > Developing situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/mike-conway-retirement-from-professional-motorsport > Updated: 2026-11-03T01:42:37.000Z. Sources: 5. Developments: 2. British racing driver Mike Conway announced his retirement from professional motorsport, effective at the conclusion of the current FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) season. His career includes titles in Formula Renault UK and British Formula 3, four IndyCar Series victories, and two WEC Drivers’ World Championships with Toyota. As the WEC season concludes at the Monza 6 Hours, the Hypercar Drivers' Championship remains undecided between Toyota’s Hypercar entries. The #8 crew, consisting of Brendon Hartley, Sébastien Buemi, and Ryō Hirakawa, holds a 17-point lead over the #7 crew, which includes Conway, Kamui Kobayashi, and Nyck de Vries. A top-five finish for the #8 car would mathematically guarantee the drivers' championship regardless of the #7 car's performance. While Toyota Racing has already secured the Hypercar Manufacturers' championship, other titles remain contested. In the LMGT3 category, the #33 TF Sport Corvette holds an 18-point advantage over the #92 Manthey Porsche. Additionally, BMW, Ferrari, and Cadillac are competing for second place in the LMGT3 manufacturers' standings. The Monza race serves as the final professional outing for Conway, marking the end of an 86-race career with Toyota. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-03: FIA WEC season finale at Monza to decide multiple championships The FIA WEC season finale at Monza will decide the Hypercar Drivers' title in a Toyota duel and the LMGT3 championship between Corvette and Porsche. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/toyota-racing-prepares-for-wec-season-finale-in-monza ### 2026-10-06: Mike Conway announces retirement from professional motorsport British driver Mike Conway will retire from professional motorsport at the end of the 2026 FIA WEC season, concluding a career that includes two Le Mans victories and two WEC world titles. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mike-conway-announces-retirement-from-professional-motorsport --- Cite as: Mike Conway retirement and WEC season finale at Monza.
