*Porsche 911 GT3 R: How to make a great car even better ➡️*
Porsche customer teams are set to compete with a further refined version of the successful 911 GT3 R 🚀 in the 2026 season. The new GT3 race car incorporates a range of detailed optimisations, including reworked aerodynamics. The most striking visual feature of the new 911 GT3 R is the addition of ventiducts on the upper side of the front wheel arches. These so-called “louvres” significantly contribute to improved aerodynamics.
Coupled with the optimised kinematics of the double wishbone front suspension, which provides an anti-dive effect by enhancing force resistance, the louvres help to counteract front-end compression during deceleration, thereby maintaining aerodynamic balance. This reduces the tendency of the car to tilt forward during braking, also known as pitch sensitivity ↕️. As a result, the new 911 GT3 R offers more precise and predictable braking behaviour, improving overall control.
