Porsche unveils its new 963 Le Mans challenger, as does everybody else...

Porsche 963 Le Mans Hypercar

It’s a Porsche. Definitely not a Toyota. We think...

The Hypercar train just keeps rolling on with Porsche being the first major brand to show off its new Le Mans challenger, swiftly followed by a host of others.

The new 963 LMDh (don’t ask us why it’s named to follow on from the 962 and not the far more recent 919 – we have no idea either…) made its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, resplendent in another red and white livery, making it near-indistinguishable from Toyota, Glickenhaus and likely Ferrari. Speaking of Ferrari, its new Hypercar broke cover at its Fiorano test track, wearing a camo livery and a conspicuously huge twin-plane rear wing.

And then out of left field comes Isotta Fraschini, with the reborn Milan company reportedly now having a completed design for a Hypercar of its own, plus Williams Advanced Engineering and ex-Ferrari builder Michelotto as partners.
