Campbell and Jaminet Seal IMSA GTP Title for Porsche Penske at Petit Le Mans

The triumph comes during Porsche Penske’s pivot to a two-car IMSA focus, raising questions over 2026 driver seats.

Overview

  • Third place at Road Atlanta clinched the drivers’ crown as Porsche Penske also retained the GTP team, manufacturer and endurance titles.
  • The champions won only once at Laguna Seca, with reliability, frequent podiums and a mid-season chassis change keeping them in control.
  • Porsche Penske has confirmed it will leave the WEC after 2025 to concentrate on IMSA, and reporting indicates only four full-time GTP seats are expected for 2026.
  • A pre-race medical issue sidelined third driver Julien Andlauer at Petit Le Mans, prompting Laurens Vanthoor to take stints in both factory 963s.
  • Campbell and Jaminet remain slated for the WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain in November, competing in separate Porsche 963 entries with designated co-drivers.
