Porsche adds ex-BMW technical director to IMSA GTP attack
Brandon Fry, who previously worked on BMW’s IMSA GT campaigns and Porsche’s GTP challenger, will join the Team Penske Porsche IMSA program as the lead race engineer. This move is part of an effort to bolster the team’s engineering operation for 2024. According to PPM’s managing director, Jonathan Diuguid, the team reviewed its first year in the electrical hybrid GTP era and realized the need for more depth in their staffing levels. They have added engineering personnel to all of their programs in WEC and IMSA. Year two of competition with LMDh cars is expected to be more stable as teams have become more familiar with their hybrid-powered machines.
