What the 2021 WEC Looks Like for Round 2 Portimão www.porscheroadandrace.com What the 2021 WEC looks like for Round 2 Portimão Published: 11th June 2021 By: Glen Smale Online version: https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/what-the-2021-wec-looks-like-for-round-2-portimao/ The works #92 Porsche 911 RSR will be driven in the second round event at Portimão by Kevin Estre, Neel Jani and Michael Christensen Round 1 of the 9th season of the WEC was contested at the legendary Spa circuit on 1 May 2021. The result of this race in the GTE Pro class went in Porsche’s favour with the #92 Porsche 911 RSR of Kévin Estre/Neel Jani taking a commanding win. The #91 sister car of Gianmaria Bruni/Richard Lietz finished in fifth place in class being hampered by heavy traffic, a puncture and a rear end shunt by a Hypercar. The only Porsche finisher in GTE Am was the #88 Dempsey-Proton Porsche, and while a podium place was a possibility, a very www.porscheroadandrace.com late drive-through penalty torpedoed any chance of that happening. The factory #91 Porsche 911 RSR will be driven in the second round event at Portimão by Gianmaria Bruni, Richard Lietz and Frederic Makowiecki However, the whole WEC community moves to Portugal this weekend for Round 2 at the 4.684 km Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, which is nestled in the hilly hinterland close to the coastal resorts of Portimão and Lagos. Most of the WEC races are 6-hour events and only require two drivers per car, apart from Le Mans that is, but because the Portimão race is an 8-hour event, three drivers per car will be used. www.porscheroadandrace.com The works #92 Porsche 911 RSR will be driven in the second round event at Portimão by Kevin Estre, Neel Jani and Michael Christensen A total of 33 cars will take to the Portimão track on this weekend (13 June) in the four classes, made up as follows: Hypercar – 4 cars; LMP2 – 11 cars; GTE Pro – 4 cars; and GTE Am – 14 cars. Two factory Porsche 911 RSRs will be present in the GTE Pro class, with five 911s in the GTE Am class. www.porscheroadandrace.com The #77 Dempsey-Proton Racing Porsche 911 RSR will be driven in the second round event at Portimão by Matt Campbell, Christian Ried and Jaxon Evans Class No. Team Drivers GTE Pro 91 Porsche Gianmaria Bruni, Richard Lietz, Frédéric Makowiecki 92 Porsche Kévin Estre, Neel Jani, Michael Christensen GTE Am 56 Team Project 1 Egidio Perfetti, Matteo Cairoli, Riccardo Pera Dempsey-Proton 77 Matt Campbell, Christian Ried, Jaxon Evans Racing www.porscheroadandrace.com Dempsey-Proton 88 Julien Andlauer, Dominique Bastien, Marco Seefried Racing 86 GR Racing Michael Wainwright, Ben Barker, Tom Gamble This is the first time that a round of the WEC has been held at this circuit which features 16 corners with many up and downhill sections.

STOP PRESS Information relating to the 2021 Le Mans 24 Hours just in… The good news is that the 2021 24 Hours of Le Mans (21-22 August) will be open to fans! Tickets go on general sale at 10h00 CEST on Monday 21 June. www.porscheroadandrace.com Before the start of the race each year, an army helicopter delivers the French Tricolour flag which is used to start the race. In a spectacular manoeuvre, a pair of Commandos descend from the hovering helicopter to hand over the Tricolour to the starter. The helicopter then drops its nose to an almost vertical position, applies a burst of speed along the length of the start/finish straight and banks away steeply in a final display of aeronautical theatrics. The second helicopter in the top right of the picture, is filming the action for television. It makes for a great start to the race! Round 4 of the WEC will be the 24 Hours of Le Mans held over the weekend of 20-21 August, starting at the later time of 16h00 CEST. This will be the first time that the new Hypercar class will run at Le Mans. Attendance will be limited to approximately 50,000 (20% of the usual capacity, subject to Government decisions) and spectators will be required to present the health passport www.porscheroadandrace.com introduced by the French Government on 9 June. By reducing capacity and using the health passport, we can host a premium-quality event safely. Scrutineering (Saturday 14 August) and Test Day (Sunday 15 August) will not be open to the public.

There will, however, be a whole range of entertainment to provide an outstanding experience for fans returning to the circuit. www.porscheroadandrace.com In the event of a government-enforced cancellation or another closed-door event, all spectators will be refunded.

  • REVOLUTIONARY REGULATIONS a New Top Class Will Be Launched For
    2020-2024: REVOLUTIONARY REGULATIONS A new top class will be launched for 2020-2024: sleeker prototypes with more marque cachet. While these racing cars will cut quite an imposing figure, they will also retain the usage of a hybrid system while leaving free the choice of combustion engine at a predetermined and fixed cost. The name of the new class will be chosen by popular vote. The 2020-2024 plan will usher in a new era of endurance racing with an ultramodern style of prototype called.... whatever the fans of the discipline decide! Super Sportscar, GTPrototype, Le Mans Supercars or Le Mans Hypercars? The choice is the fans’! The regulations, devised by the ACO and the FIA, focus on the appearance, style and lines of the cars in the new premier league. Team and car diversity in endurance racing is one of the discipline’s foremost trademarks, never truer with the emergence of these stylized yet muscular cars, veritable racing beasts in the spirit and image of endurance. They will take on circuits like Le Mans, Spa, Silverstone, Fuji and Sebring in the day and night, rain or shine, in hot weather as in cold. That calls for a tough prototype, one as imposing as it is ingenious and technological. One that turns heads, like hypercars, supercars, prestigious GTs and concept cars do on the street or at any given motor show. So, why not draw inspiration from those machines to build endurance racing cars? Consider it a done deal. Aerodynamics cannot take precedence over aesthetics. Being the top class, these new prototypes must be technologically powerful and compelling in design and will therefore remain hybrid, with a KERS system in front and 4WD to ensure energy efficiency.

  • Press Release 10 August 2020
    Press Release 10 August 2020 Preview, FIA World Endurance Championship WEC, round 6, Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium) The Porsche GT Team is well prepared for the WEC restart Stuttgart. The 2019-2020 season of the World Endurance Championship resumes after more than a 24-week break due to the coronavirus pandemic. On August 15, round six of the World Endurance Championship WEC will be held at Spa- Francorchamps. Porsche tackles the six-hour race with two of the latest 911 RSR racers. The defending world champions Michael Christensen (Denmark) and Kévin Estre (France) share the cockpit of the No. 92 car, with their teammates Richard Lietz (Austria) and Gianmaria Bruni (Italy) joining forces in the No. 91 Porsche. The factory squad returns to Belgium with positive memories: Last year, Porsche claimed an early world championship title in the GTE-Pro manufacturer’s classification. Cur- rently, the title defender ranks second in the GTE-Pro class after five races. The cus- tomer teams Dempsey-Proton Racing, Project 1 and Gulf Racing field five of last season’s 911 RSR in the GTE-Am class. The race The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps is located in the far east of Belgium close to the German border.

    Press Release November 29, 2019 Youth Development Programme in international motor racing Ayhancan Güven is the new Porsche Junior in the 2020 Supercup Stuttgart. Porsche Motorsport supports another talented young driver for the coming season: Ayhancan Güven from Turkey will contest the international Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup in 2020 as a Porsche Junior. At the three-day selection process in Porti- mão in Portugal, the 21-year-old beat eleven other candidates, who had been nomi- nated by their respective national Porsche one-make cups. Güven travelled to the shootout as the reigning champion of the Porsche Carrera Cup France. Porsche has supported talented young racing drivers since 1997 and helps them on their way up the motorsport career ladder. “For Porsche, it is important to recognise the talents and abilities of drivers and to assist them. The competition in the national one-make cup series is high. This was evident in the shootout and underlines how strongly we are positioned in motorsport,” says Fritz Enzinger, Vice President Por- sche Motorsport. “During the shootout at Portimão, the participants were literally checked out from top to toe. We got a comprehensive picture of their physical and mental fitness and also tested their driving skills,” explains Jasmin Steidle-Faas, pro- ject manager of the Porsche Motorsport Junior Programme. Güven climbed into a kart at the age of five and was supported by his father, who is also an amateur racer in Turkey. At the age of twelve, the youngster from Istanbul switched to SimRacing and competed for the world’s largest team with today’s For- mula 1 drivers Max Verstappen and Lando Norris.

  • Press Release 18 September 2020
    Press Release 18 September 2020 Porsche Carrera Cup Le Mans Spectacular support programme: 53 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup start at Le Mans Stuttgart. Porsche’s one-make cups are well represented by a packed grid at Le Mans. As part of the support programme of the legendary 24-hour race, the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland and the Porsche Carrera Cup France deploy 53 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup on the racetrack. Hollywood star Michael Fassbender contests the race as a prominent guest driver and gains valuable experience for his personal “Road to Le Mans” project. The German-Irish actor is eager to contest next year’s classic in a Porsche 911 RSR. Porsche AG also fields a second VIP vehicle helmed by Max van Splunteren (Netherlands) – as a reward for the rookie title winner’s strong performance in the 2020 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The unwavering appeal of Porsche’s one-make cups lies in the principle of equal opportunities: Identical vehicles, control tyres and restricted set-up options put the drivers’ performance in the foreground. In the past, many drivers from the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) had taken this path on their way to professional motor racing. In 2011, Kévin Estre won the French Carrera Cup before going on to claim the title in the German equivalent two years later. The Frenchman has been a member of Porsche’s factory driver squad since 2016. Estre won the GTE-Pro class at the 2018 Le Mans endurance classic. A year later, the 31-year-old was crowned world champion of the WEC there.
