Peugeot won’t race its revised 9X8 in WEC season opener
Peugeot Sport has confirmed that they will race in the 2024 WEC curtain-raiser in Qatar with the same car they used in the previous season’s finale in Bahrain. The decision to overhaul the 9X8 model with narrower front and wider rear tires meant that a debut at Qatar was never an option. The revised car is expected to be homologated by the end of March, with plans to race it at Imola on April 11. The car’s weight distribution had to be adjusted, and there may be upgrades to the aerodynamics and the 2.6-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, although specific details have not been disclosed.
