Steel Sleeves Fiasco: GT Bureau handed out a 30Kg penalty for all Porsche's competing in the FiA series . This penalty will be in effect from Budapest.

The Porsche's were at rislk of being disqualified, but the GT Bureau members accept the Porsche’s proposal to allow the use of steel sleeves in the engine for the rest of the 2009 season on condition that a weight of 30 kg be added.

How Porsche Motorsport allowed itself to be put into this position is very unfortunate.

 

P.S. Latest rumor is that LMP1 project is canceled. (as I suspected and forecasted)

Also - Porsche will reduce it's presence in Grand Am. (both in DP's and GT)

 

The end is near!
