Scrutineering for this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans is June 2-3.
three Porsche 963 entries, took an LMP2 car to Le Mans last year with Team Penske in part to get familiar with the grand tradition of scrutineering and its station-to-station approach in front of fans and other competitors, often equipped with cameras for spy shots. After inspections on Friday and Saturday, the Test Day will take place on Sunday.
Mike O’Gara, who will manage the two Cadillac V-Series.R entries of Chip Ganassi Racing, experienced his first trip through Le Mans scrutineering with Ford’s GT LM in 2016 – and won in the top GT class. Nelson will be making his first appearance in the Place de la Republique. “It’s like walking into a dark room, turning on the light and hoping everything is in the right places,” he said. “We don’t want to get something wrong and look silly and cause ourselves more problems.”
The fact teams can and do get through scrutineering with some advantages as well as through the Balance of Performance process has been clear to Keating, an annual competitor at Le Mans. “Once the race started last year, the Porsches were two seconds a lap faster,” said the Texan, who co-drove an Aston Martin Vantage.
