WeatherTech Racing ditches Porsche for the remainder of the IMSA season
It has all the makings of a bad breakup. WeatherTech Racing and partner team Proton Competition are abandoning the Porsche brand for the remainder of their 2022 IMSA GTD Pro campaign, and made it a very public split with a formal press release on Tuesday afternoon.

On Friday evening Porsche drivers Michael Christensen and Kevin Estre teamed for a GTE Pro-class victory in the 1000 Miles of Sebring race to kick off the FIA WEC race season in flying fashion.

It is the end of an era. IMSA's once highly successful GTLM class built around international GTE specification grand touring race cars is now dead. As the checkered flag fell on the 24th running of the Petit Le Mans race in Georgia this weekend, with it fell a giant of international motorsport.

Is Porsche even Porsche without a top-flight 911 race car? I guess we'll find out soon, because the current mid-engine 911 RSR will be the last of its kind for the foreseeable future. Because Porsche is shifting its focus to the LMDh prototype program, which will make its debut in 2023, it won't be developing another version of such a car. As the …

This weekend's FIA WEC season finale came down to a late-race intentional shunting and a race control deciding not to penalize for the action. In my absolutely biased opinion, this is a black eye on the sport, and the Ferrari team should be ashamed of their actions. When Porsche came to Bahrain for last weekend's six-hour event, it was clearly the …

After finding success in one of the hottest events of the season — with air temps in the mid-90s all day — Porsche now leads the constructor's championship in the GTE Pro category over competition from Ferrari.

The 2021 IMSA season is coming to a close, and it's looking increasingly like the Pfaff Motorsports Porsche 911 GT3 R has what it takes to secure the GTD championship this year.

Way back in 1974, racer and team owner Roger Penske developed a new series called IROC which would bring together all of the champion racers from a season and put them all in identical cars to see who was actually the fastest racer. With stars from Trans Am, Can Am, Formula One, NASCAR, USAC, and more, the racing was stellar and star-studded. For …

Leading up to the 24 Hours of Le Mans this year, Porsche looked in an extremely strong position to score yet another class victory in the world's greatest endurance sports car event. In both GTE Pro and GTE Am, there were nice shiny 911 RSRs sitting on the class pole. Despite over 19 percent of the grid being powered by Porsche's four-liter …
