The R&D engineers from Weissach and Porsche Penske Motorsport will thus refine the suspension of the Porsche 963 for the 2025 season. This will allow for better adaptation of the settings of the prototypes in the Hypercar category (FIA WEC) and GTP (IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship) to the specificities of the circuits ", estimates the German firm.
