Porsche Dominates Long Beach IMSA Race, BMW Left in the Dust

In a thrilling display of dominance, Porsche Penske Motorsport stole the show at Long Beach, securing victory in both GTP and GTD categories. The team’s ‘Rexy’ dinosaur-liveried 911 GT3 R roared to the top, leaving competitors in its wake and extending its unbeaten streak in the 2025 IMSA SportsCar Championship to three out of three.

Porsche Penske Motorsport’s stellar performance has left the competition in the dust, showcasing unparalleled skill and strategy on the track. The team’s efficiency in pit stops and driver prowess have set them apart, making it clear that they are a force to be reckoned with this season.

On the other end of the spectrum, BMW M Team RLL faced disappointment once again, despite showing impressive speed throughout the weekend. The team’s pit stop woes cost them valuable time, allowing Porsche to surge ahead and claim the top spot once more. With only one podium finish this season, BMW has some catching up to do in the upcoming races.

Meanwhile, Robert Wickens made a triumphant return to the series, impressing with his performance in the Corvette Z06 GT3.R. Wickens’ skill and determination on the track have solidified his place as a star to watch in the championship.

However, not everyone had a successful outing at Long Beach. Acura Meyer Shank Racing struggled to maintain their podium streak, facing setbacks that saw them fall behind in the rankings. Despite a strong start, the team was unable to secure a top position, leaving them disappointed with the outcome.

In the GTD category, AO Racing defied the odds to clinch victory once again, showcasing their resilience and skill behind the wheel. The unexpected win left favorites Vasser Sullivan Lexus RC F GT3s trailing behind, highlighting the unpredictable nature of motorsport.

As the championship continues to heat up, teams will need to bring their A-game to stay ahead of the competition. With Porsche setting the bar high and unexpected upsets shaking up the standings, the IMSA SportsCar Championship is proving to be a thrilling and unpredictable series to watch.
