Porsche GT3 racing competition successes

Overview

Porsche has achieved significant success in recent GT3 racing competitions. In the Gran Turismo World Series Manufacturers Cup round at Fuji International Speedway, Takuma Sasaki secured a victory for Porsche after taking the lead from Audi during a 27-lap race affected by heavy rain and changing track conditions.

Following this, the AO Absolute Racing team won the 50th Suzuka 1000km, a part of the Intercontinental GT Challenge, with the number 8 Porsche 911 GT3 R Evo. Additionally, Ayhancan Güven secured a third-place podium finish driving a separate Porsche 911 GT3 R. The Suzuka event was also marked by technical drama for the Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo team, which was forced to start from the back of the grid due to failing minimum weight requirements.
