Porsche’s Manthey 911 LMGT3 R 992s have been dominating LMGT3’s debut season in the FIA WEC, winning four out of six races so far, making it difficult for others like WRT and Heart of Racing to challenge for the Drivers’ and Teams’ titles. However, teams without a win or podium finish are feeling the pressure as the season nears its end. Vista AF Corse, after a strong showing in Japan, is looking to achieve a breakthrough result with the Ferrari 488 GTE. Despite Ferrari’s historical success in WEC, the 296 LMGT3 has yet to shine, partly due to Balance of Performance issues, torque sensors, and adapting to Goodyear’s 2024 tires. The team’s factory drivers, Rovera and Rigon, acknowledge the difficulties posed by the skill and experience gap between Bronze and Silver drivers in the LMGT3 category.
