During post-qualifying scrutineering, the car was found to be underweight, resulting in its placement at the back of the Hypercar grid. This led to the Penske-run factory #5 Porsche 963 securing the pole position. Antonio Fuoco initially held the ‘pole’ lap in the #50 Ferrari, but due to demotion, Matt Campbell’s lap in the #5 Porsche became the new pole lap. The Ferrari was deemed under the minimum weight after complications with rear end replacement. As a result, the Ferrari will start from nineteenth position in the race, last in its class. Fred Makowiecki will lead the #5 Porsche from pole, with the #2 Cadillac’s Alex Lynn in second, followed by other contenders in subsequent positions.
