Listen to this article Porsche's last absence from the top flight of sportscar racing spanned 15 seasons between 1998 and 2014. Now, it's returning to the top of the tree once again with an LMDh prototype, just five years after the end of the 919 Hybrid LMP1 FIA World Endurance Championship programme that re-crowned the marque as the king of endurance with a Le Mans 24 Hours hat-trick. The reason is simple: a set of regulations that allows it to challenge for outright glory on both the world and North American stages from next season. Porsche doesn't want to just add to its record 19 overall victories at Le Mans; just as significantly, it's looking to increase its tally of 18 wins in its North American equivalent, the Daytona 24 Hours. That's important for a marque that hasn't won since 2003 at what next January, as the opening round of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, will be the scheduled debut of the as-yet-unnamed LMDh. "North America always has been and … [Read more...] about The prototype that Porsche hopes will become its latest legend

Listen to this article Lamborghini Squadra Corse, the Italian manufacturer’s motorsport division, confirmed on Tuesday that it will compete at the pinnacle of sportscar racing for the first time, which will include bids for outright honours at the 24-hour endurance classics at Le Mans and Daytona. It follows a series of statements over the past year from Giorgio Sanna, the boss of Squadra Corse, outlining an intent to develop a car for the new category coming on stream in both WEC and IMSA next season. Lamborghini has not revealed its technical partners for the move into LMDh in year two of the category, but it is known that it is partnering with French constructor Ligier Automotive. Ligier, one of four licensed constructors for the next-gen LMP2 chassis around which LMDh cars must be based, is therefore set for its first manufacturer partner, with Oreca, Dallara and Multimatic already all having at least one confirmed partner each.

Listen to this article As one of the first manufacturers to commit to building a car to the FIA World Endurance Championship's LMH regulations in 2021, Glickenhaus remains the only entrant to field current-gen machinery in the Hypercar class other than Toyota with its 007 LMH, with Peugeot not expected to enter the championship until Monza in July. Given its American roots, Glickenhaus was considered an obvious candidate to expand to IMSA in 2023, when LMH cars will be allowed to compete against the series’ own LMDh machinery in the newly-created GTP category. However, IMSA has laid down strict criteria for manufacturers wishing to race in the series’ top class next year, with a production requirement of 2,500 road cars per year effectively confining the category to mainstream car makers. Team founder Jim Glickenhaus has long been a vocal critic of IMSA’s policy, which he believes violates US antitrust laws by discriminating against manufacturers based on their size and … [Read more...] about Glickenhaus warns IMSA not to block customer entries for 2023

The Tata Nano was always Tata Group Chairman Emeritus Ratan Tata's dream project. It was a car that promised the accessibility of four wheels to every Indian at an accessible price. And while it may not have turned into the commercial success it was touted to be, it still remains close to Mr. Tata's heart. So it's hardly surprising when Mr. Tata was recently spotted being driven in the Nano at the Taj Mahal hotel (also a Tata property) in Mumbai. What's interesting is that the Nano in question is an electric version. It was also heartening to see Mr. Tata being driven in the Nano Electric in the absence of any bodyguards. Known for his simplicity, Mr. Tata manages to set new benchmarks every time, and netizens have been hailing the business icon for his modesty and simplicity.
