’s new SC63 prototype racecar made its American debut at the 12 Hours of Sebring this past weekend, joining Porsche, Cadillac, BMW, Alpine, and Acura in the new LMDh class introduced last year.
Every LMDh team uses the same battery-electric hybrid system provided by Bosch but can then employ their own internal-combustion engine and unique aerodynamic packages on top of the choice between four chassis options built by Dallara, Ligier, Multimatic, or Oreca.
And yet, only a few hours into the race, Chief Technical Officer Rouven Mohr noted that the SC63 had managed to log a fastest-lap time only about a second slower than the leading Cadillac. Unfortunately, though, the car’s tires seemed to be struggling to warm up—meaning that after any pit stop or safety car, the team would lose around 20 seconds before being able to hold a steady pace.
“The strength of Lambo is that we are a very small team,” Mohr said, “But we need mileage, mileage, mileage, collecting data, and also for specific tracks. But the others are also refining their performance… This is motorsport, this is what we want. We want the competition.
