The FIA World Endurance Championship has confirmed the Balance of Performance measures for the third round of the 2024 season, the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, as Peugeot continues as the heaviest Hypercar.

For the race on 11 May, Peugeot will enter their second race with their latest 9X8 Le Mans Hypercar which features revised aerodynamics and wheel sizes.

Due to the clash with the FIA Formula E World Championship round in Berlin, both of their #93 and #94 Hypercars will run with just two drivers each.

After a difficult debut for the new car at Imola – involving a Lap 1 incident caused by another competitor – their hopes are now set on ensuring the 9X8 can grasp a more promising finishing result despite being the heaviest Hypercar.
