Proton Competition has admitted that it doesn’t have the budget to expand to a two-car Hypercar operation in the World Endurance Championship, casting doubts over whether the Porsche 963 would remain on the grid in 2026.
Last month, Porsche announced that it would withdraw its factory Penske team from Hypercar next year to focus entirely on its more successful GTP programme in the IMSA SportsCar Championship.
