Porsche - Sweat, Tears and Cheers

The best Porsche 963 concluded the 2023 Le Mans 24 Hours in ninth place.

In a very close and intense battle over long stretches at the 100th anniversary of the long-distance classic, the Porsche Penske Motorsport works team was struck with misfortune.

All three hybrid prototypes lost ground due to incidents or technical defects.

As a result, they were unable to chase overall victory with the 515+ kW (700 PS) Porsche 963.

The identical vehicle fielded by the Hertz Team Jota also went home empty-handed after a strong performance.

In the GTE-Am category, the Porsche 911 RSR fielded by the customer team GR Racing claimed the third podium spot.
