Proton Competition will race their #99 Porsche 963 in the upcoming round of the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship, but without Harry Tincknell, who will be competing for Ford Multimatic at the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s Canadian Tire Motorsport Park event. The next WEC race, the 6 Hours of Sao Paulo on July 14, coincides with the IMSA event. It will be the first WEC race in Brazil since 2014 when Interlagos hosted the event. IMSA’s Chevrolet Grand Prix will feature LMP2s, GTD, and GTD Pro cars in a 2-hour and 40-minute sprint race. Proton and Cadillac will have two-driver lineups, part of the 37 confirmed entries in the Hypercar and LMGT3 classes. Additionally, the battle for the World Championship in the Hypercar category is intense, with the Porsche Penske 963 crew leading by 99 points, closely followed by the Le Mans-winning Ferrari 499P lineup, just nine points behind.
