Rumors were swirling that Porsche Penske would enter a third Porsche 963 in the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship, as they did with one of their legendary LMP2 spec RS Spyders at the 2008 Petit Le Mans. However, both the team and the top brass at Porsche Motorsports have unequivocally put those rumors to bed and firmly said "no."

Roger Penske, who also is the boss of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has confirmed that there would not be the possibility of the FIA World Endurance Championship holding a U.S. round of their championship at "The Brickyard" until at least 2026.

GM and Cadillac Racing boss Laura Wontrop Klauser state firmly, and unequivocally, there are no plans for the brand to offer the V Series.R to customers. Therefore, the two factory teams in the form of both Chip Ganassi Racing and my mates at Action Express, will be the ones to race it for the long haul. This means, I believe, that Porsche is still the only brand with a customer level Hypercar/LMDh/GTP, with their 963.
