  • Press Release November 29, 2019
    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 6 March 2020
    Press Release 6 March 2020 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, 2020 season Porsche Juniors and their teams are ready for the new Supercup season Stuttgart. The two Porsche Juniors Jaxon Evans (New Zealand) and Ayhancan Güven (Turkey) have found their teams for the upcoming Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season. Evans competes for Lechner Racing (Austria), with Güven driving for the French squad Martinet by Alméras. For both young drivers, this marks their second season in the international one-make cup, which is contested as support to European Formula 1 events. The youngsters receive funding to the value of 225,000 Euros and mentoring from the former Porsche works driver Sascha Maassen as well as media seminars, mental coaching and sports medicine support. “Anyone who performs well in the top-class field of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup is well prepared for a career as a professional race driver. Many top international tal- ents took the decisive career step in the Supercup and then went on to become works drivers. We’re pleased that the two ambitious racers Jaxon Evans and Ayhan- can Güven joined our strong grid line-up again this year,” says Oliver Schwab, pro- ject manager of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The season kicks off with the first round of the European Formula 1 season at the Circuit Zandvoort (1-3 March). Jaxon Evans joined the Porsche Motorsport Junior Programme at the beginning of last year. This season, the 23-year-old will race under the supervision of the Austrian team Lechner Racing. The squad from Faistenau won the team championship title for the last six years and also produced the overall winner for the last four years.

  • 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.

  • Pi20210822e Podium Finish for the Porsche 911 RSR at the 24 Hours of Le Mans
    Press Release 22 August 2021 Race GTE, FIA World Endurance Championship, Round 4, Le Mans (France) Podium finish for the Porsche 911 RSR at the 24 Hours of Le Mans Stuttgart. Porsche has secured a podium spot in the fiercely contested GTE-Pro class at the 89th edition of the Le Mans 24-hour race. The works drivers Kévin Estre from France and Neel Jani from Switzerland as well as Denmark’s Michael Christensen achieved third place in the No. 92 Porsche 911 RSR. The No. 91 sister car driven by Gianmaria Bruni from Italy, Richard Lietz from Austria and Frenchman Frédéric Makowiecki wrapped up round four of the FIA World Endurance Champion- ship (WEC) in fourth place. The in-house fight between the two works cars for the final podium spot was decided about an hour before the flag dropped: After sliding in the last chicane, the rear of the No. 91 had to undergo repairs and a replacement of the brakes. “Our team put in a flawless and spirited performance,” explains Fritz Enzinger, Vice President Motorsport. “Unfortunately, we lacked a bit of speed to be able to challenge the competition for class victory. The podium result for our No. 92 car is still a nice reward for the passionate work that our employees have done at the racetrack and back at our headquarters in Weissach. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this achievement.” The two ca. 515 PS nine-eleven from Weissach set a decent pace over long stretches of the French long-distance classic. However, due to bad luck during two safety car phases, a gap of around three minutes from the leader emerged in the first third of the race.

    Press Release 28 January 2020 911 GT3 RS: Fuel consumption combined 13.2 l/100 km; CO2 emissions combined 303 g/km Preview, Intercontinental GT Challenge, round 1, Bathurst 12 Hour/Australia Five Porsche 911 GT3 R aim for a successful start to the season at Bathurst Stuttgart. Porsche launches its Title Defence Mission in the Intercontinental GT Challenge at Bathurst, Australia. In 2019, the sports car manufacturer claimed the IGTC titles in the manufacturers’ and drivers’ classifications. The gruelling twelve- hour race (January 31 to February 2) traditionally marks the start of the most important championship for GT3 sports cars. In the race at Mount Panorama, five Porsche 911 GT3 R face strong opposition from vehicles from ten other manufactur- ers. Last year, Porsche won the long-distance event at Bathurst for the first time in its history thanks to the customer squad EBM (Earl Bamber Motorsport). The race This year marks the 18th running of the 12-hour race at the Mount Panorama Circuit in the Australian state of New South Wales. The endurance classic was first contest- ed here in 1991. The 6.213-killometre circuit 200 kilometres west of Sydney consists of public roads with 23 curves. Per lap, vehicles have to cope with an elevation dif- ference of 174 metres. The track layout poses a great challenge to drivers and engi- neers. The tight corner combinations to the south demand utmost concentration at the wheel. The fastest passages are the two long sections, Conrod Straight (1.916 km) and Mountain Straight (1.111 km). Around 40 vehicles will line up on the grid this year, 33 of which are GT3 cars – a Bathurst 12-Hour record.
