Following the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Battle on the Bricks race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, post-race technical inspection was extended for selected GTP cars due to which two infractions were found. The No. 6 Porsche Penske Motorsport 963 received a penalty for unauthorized modifications to its wiring harness/loom, resulting in a fine of $10,000 and being moved to 10th place in the final standings. This narrowed the championship points gap between the two PPM Porsches to give No. 7 a significant lead over No. 6. Meanwhile, the No. 40 Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti Acura ARX-06 also faced penalties for modified brake ducting components, moving them to last place in the standings with a $10,000 fine. A total of seven cars were impounded for detailed technical inspection as IMSA opted for thorough checks near the teams’ bases, with the assessments concluding on Monday.
