The revised Peugeot 9X8 2024 Le Mans Hypercar introduced at the Imola WEC in April has received an 18kg weight break down to 1047kg while retaining the maximum power of 508kW at which it raced last time out at Spa in May. It follows two races at which the heavily reworked LMH, which now runs a conventional rear wing, failed to match the performance of the previous iteration of the car at the Qatar season-opener in March.
6% reduction and the Peugeot with 0.7%. All the other cars have a 0.9% power gain, with the exception of the Porsche 963 LMDh, which will run the same 511kW maximum power above and below 250km/h. Power gain had been set for an introduction for round two of the WEC at Imola in April after it was trialled by some manufacturers at the official pre-season Prologue test ahead of the season-opener in Qatar in March. No reason was given for a delay that extended through round three at Spa last month.
