Ex-Formula 1 driver [Max Chilton](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/max-chilton-information-statistics/ "Max Chilton info & statistics") has moved to the World Endurance Championship, ending any chance of an F1 return this season. Chilton drove for [Marussia](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/marussia/ "Marussia F1 Team informations & statistics") in both [2013](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-results/2013-f1-championship-standings/ "2013 F1 Results & Standings") and [2014](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-results/2014-f1-championship-standings/ "2014 F1 Results & Standings"), before they folded at the end of last season. However, the team may be on the grid in [2015](https://www.f1-fansite/f1-results/1950-f1-championship-standings/ "2015 F1 Calendar") under the name of Manor F1, and Chilton had been heavily tipped to be named as the second driver, after [Will Stevens](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/will-stevens-information-statistics/ "Will Stevens info & statistics") was announced last week. Chilton will drive for Nissan in the series, which also has ex-F1 drivers [Mark Webber](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/mark-webber/ "Mark Webber info & statistics"), [Anthony Davidson](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/andy-sutcliffe-information-statistics/ "Anthony Davidson info & statistics") and [Sebastian Buemi](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/sebastien-buemi/ "Sébastien Buemi info & statistics"). Chilton told reporters: “I'm honoured to have been asked to join a manufacturer as prestigious as Nissan in a championship that is growing year on year. “Le Mans has always had an amazing following and to be racing there as a works driver is a dream come true.  My aim has always been to race at the highest level and the technology that has gone into the Nissan GT-R LM NISMO is as impressive as a Formula 1 car. “Having met with the team and seen first-hand the dedication and desire to win that exists within this project I can't wait to get on track."   Share this article [Share on X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Chilton%20moves%20to%20WEC&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fchilton-moves-wec%2F&via=wpvkp) [Share on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fchilton-moves-wec%2F) [Share on WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Chilton%20moves%20to%20WEC%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fchilton-moves-wec%2F) [Share on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fchilton-moves-wec%2F&title=Chilton%20moves%20to%20WEC) [Share on Pinterest](https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fchilton-moves-wec%2F&media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F09%2F226975_462727423783084_2067344315_n-639x675.jpg&description=Chilton%20moves%20to%20WEC) --- Related topics - [2015 F1 season](https://www.f1-fansite.com/tag/2015-f1-season/) - [F1 Comment](https://www.f1-fansite.com/tag/f1-comment/) - [Max Chilton News](https://www.f1-fansite.com/tag/max-chilton-news/) [![Jules Bianchi, Marussia MR02](https://www.f1-fansite.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/425_471527982903028_433525405_n-330x220.jpg)Previous PostCandidates line up for second Manor F1 seat](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/candidates-line-second-manor-f1-seat/)  1 [![Toto Wolff](https://www.f1-fansite.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/787487727-4201114112014-Custom-330x220.jpg) Next Post Wolff says F1 'shark tank' alive and well](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/wolff-says-f1-shark-tank-alive-well/) Most recent 10 F1 News items: - **Sunday, 11 Oct 2026**12:29 -  [Verstappen's daughter is changing his plans for the future](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/verstappens-daughter-is-changing-his-plans-for-the-future/) - 12:28 -  [Norris under fire after Piastri clash and prickly interviews](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/norris-under-fire-after-piastri-clash-and-prickly-interviews/) - 11:35 -  [Verstappen's revival now looks like a warning for 2027](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/verstappens-revival-now-looks-like-a-warning-for-2027/) - 11:33 -  [Hadjar asks why F1 still holds Sprints on street circuits](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/hadjar-asks-why-f1-still-holds-sprints-on-street-circuits/) - **Saturday, 10 Oct 2026**09:52 -  [Antonelli family denies Monaco move after prince's remark](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/antonelli-family-denies-monaco-move-after-princes-remark/) - 09:50 -  [FIA admits Overtake Mode error again as Sainz fumes](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/fia-admits-overtake-mode-error-again-as-sainz-fumes/) - 09:49 -  [Antonelli struggles as Russell's old Mercedes spec impresses](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/antonelli-struggles-as-russells-old-mercedes-spec-impresses/) - 09:46 -  [Sainz hits back at Russell as cooling vest row grows](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/sainz-hits-back-at-russell-as-cooling-vest-row-grows/) - 09:45 -  [Racing Bulls and Haas still undecided on 2027 drivers](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/racing-bulls-and-haas-still-undecided-on-2027-drivers/) - 1 - 09:45 -  [Big teams resist Vowles's cost-cap plan as talks near](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/big-teams-resist-vowless-cost-cap-plan-as-talks-near/) ✅ **Check out all our [F1 News](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/) & Updates  »** ### Join our FREE weekly F1 Newsletter Enter your email address & confirm your subscription You've already signed up, Thanks!
