The 2026 Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring marks one of the crown‑jewel weekends of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, bringing together the most advanced hybrid prototypes in North American endurance racing. The GTP qualifying session sets the grid for IMSA’s premier category, where factory‑backed programs from Porsche, Cadillac, BMW, Acura, and Aston Martin battle across Sebring’s notoriously rough concrete surface.
Your uploaded entry list confirms an 11‑car field featuring the Porsche 963 (cars 5, 6, 7), the Cadillac V‑Series.R (cars 10, 31, 40), the BMW M Hybrid V8 (cars 24, 25), the Acura ARX‑06 (cars 60, 93), and the Aston Martin Valkyrie (car 23), all running on Michelin tires and powered by manufacturer‑specific hybrid systems using VP R80 fuel.
Cited from your document: “Porsche 963… Cadillac V‑Series.R… BMW M Hybrid V8… Acura ARX‑06… Aston Martin Valkyrie”
Sebring qualifying is uniquely demanding due to the circuit’s bumps, heat, and multi‑class traffic. Teams must balance outright pace with tire management and hybrid deployment strategy. With powerhouse lineups such as Laurens Vanthoor / Kevin Estre / Matt Campbell (No. 6 Porsche), Ricky Taylor / Filipe Albuquerque / Will Stevens (No. 10 Cadillac), Dries Vanthoor / Sheldon van der Linde / Robin Frijns (No. 24 BMW), and Tom Blomqvist / Colin Braun / Scott Dixon (No. 60 Acura), the session showcases the absolute peak of prototype racing technology and driver talent.
