Racing in the International Motorsports Association means not only endurance and speed but also meeting high standards and strict regulations. As a partner of IMSA, we supply the race cars with innovative components and sensors and ensure precision on the track. This is how we address the technical differences between engines and chassis, among other things, and combine comparability, fairness, and top performance across all teams. Because sports car racing is full of passion, dynamic, and moves more than just the drivers.

The essential role of data in LMDh development

The LMDh project posed a unique challenge: unifying multiple manufacturers and two racing series, IMSA and WEC, each with their own standards.

Bosch used its data analytics expertise to standardize communication and data exchange. This made it easy to collaborate seamlessly across the board, ensuring every team had the essential data to compete effectively. Bosch not only contributes to technological progress but also uses data to connect different teams and thus the racing community.
