With Hyundai joining this year and Ford and McLaren next year, Porsche will likely be shut out. Of course there is a remote chance of Porsche dusting off the 963s and competing next year, but probably not.
That would be a sad day 😞 . But racing is $$$ and right now Porsche doesn't have excess . If/when they become financially stronger they will be back .
