IMSA

Safety. Fairness. Passion.

Racing in the International Motorsports Association (IMSA) means not only endurance and speed, but also complying with high standards and strict regulations. As an IMSA partner, we equip the race cars with innovative components and sensors and provide a level playing field for all teams. We also give IMSA, the principal authority, live access to all data sets, so that it can get a comprehensive overview of the ongoing race event at any time.

Variety

IMSA racing sees private teams participating alongside OEM factory teams. It covers various classes, from prototypes up to GT vehicles.

Racing series

IMSA organizes several major racing series, such as the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. It’s a top series that includes prestigious events like the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring.

Innovation at the forefront

IMSA actively promotes the introduction of new technologies in motorsports. In this context, the latest developments in hybrid and electric drives are particularly worth mentioning, especially in the GTP class.

For Bosch, learning from motorsports technologies was, is, and always will be useful.
