As expected, there will be a second Porsche 963 customers at the 6 Hours of Monza. In addition to the No. 38 Hertz Team JOTA, Proton Competition will also be at the start of the Italian round of WEC with the No. 99 for its big debut in the category.

Gianmaria Bruni was the only driver announced so far, but the provisional entry list for the trans eventalpine also indicates the presence of the British Harry Tincknell. The third name is not yet known. The German team's registration for the LMGTE Am season disappears.

If certain doubts could persist about the presence of Glickenhaus on the sleeves after the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the No. 708 is well registered for the 6 Hours of Monza. Romain Dumas is nevertheless the only driver announced for the moment.

Changes are also taking place in LM P2. Mirko Bortolotti retained by the DTM, he will be replaced in Prema n°63 by Mathias Beche alongside Dorian Pin and Daniil Kvyat. Ben Hanley and Giedo van der Garde return to United Autosports to replace Filipe Albuquerque and Tom Blomqvist, requisitioned in IMSA at Canadian Tire Motor Park that same weekend.
