Day 2 of Le Mans Scrutineering at the Place de la République was well attended by a large crowd, as only three Hypercar factory teams – Porsche, Ferrari, and Toyota – remained for technical checks. Porsche’s Penske 963s and Proton’s No. 99 with a unique FATurbo Express livery were the highlights of the day. The mood at Penske was notably positive this year, in stark contrast to last year’s challenges. With a successful off-season, Porsche Penske Motorsport enters Le Mans with confidence after recent wins. Laurens Vanthoor expressed excitement about being a favorite for the race, emphasizing the importance of enjoying the moment. Proton Competition’s revamped 963, driven by Harry Tincknell, aims to continue its strong performance at Le Mans after a promising showing at Spa. The team’s underdog mentality and lack of private testing create a determined spirit heading into the Test Day.
