Press Release May 5, 2012 No Press Release May 5, 2012 No. M 27/12 Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland, race 3 on the Lausitzring Nicki Thiim wins his favourite race again Stuttgart. His dream start was the key to success: Taking up race three of the Por- sche Carrera Cup Deutschland from second on the grid, last year’s Lausitzring win- ner Nicki Thiim (Denmark, Hermes Attempto Racing) scored his first win of the sea- son on the Lausitzring. Second went to the winner of the season-opener René Rast (Germany). For the Team Deutsche Post by tolimit – Team Pole Promotion pilot, this helped further extend his points lead in Germany’s fastest one-make race series. Sean Edwards (Great Britain, Team Deutsche Post by tolimit) saw the flag in third. The grid line up for Saturday’s 60 kilometre race was determined by the second quickest time in qualifying. The first third of the 18-lap sprint race on the 3.478 kilometre circuit was character- ised by a spirited battle between Nicki Thiim and his Hermes Attempto teammate Kévin Estre (France). Pole-sitter Estre kept up the fight after Thiim overtook him at the end of the finish straight and snatched the lead. The reigning champion of the French Carrera Cup stuck like glue to the rear of Thiim’s 450 hp 911 GT3 Cup and fought like the proverbial lion, but the Dane proved determined to win on his pro- fessed favourite circuit. The pair’s pursuers, René Rast and Sean Edwards, profited from the two-way fight ahead. Rast, double champion of the international Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, swept almost effortless past young gun Estre in lap seven, whose fierce driving style and various late braking manoeuvres had caused his tyres to badly deteriorate. In the end Sean Edwards closed the gap to Estre. The vice-champion of last season and winner Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche Aktiengesellschaft 1 of 5 Public Relations and Press Porscheplatz 1 Motorsport 70435 Stuttgart Oliver Hilger Tel +49 (0) 7 11 9 11 – 2 65 09 e-mail [email protected] Press Release May 5, 2012 No. M 27/12 of race two at the season-opening weekend on the Hockenheimring picked the Frenchman off with three laps to the flag. Estre was unable to defend himself any- more and finished in fourth. The newcomer however was delighted to be the best rookie of the day. Fifth place went to Jaap van Lagen (FE Racing by Land-Motorsport) from the Nether- lands closely followed by Michael Christensen. The Porsche Junior from Denmark was in fact the star of Saturday. At only his second Carrera Cup Deutschland qualify- ing, the 21-year-old turned the fastest time, giving many the seasoned campaigners plenty to think about. Only in the gripping closing minutes was the time undercut by Edwards and Estre. The youngster followed up with an inspired race clinching sixth ahead of his teammate Norbert Siedler from Austria. The ex-Formula 1 test pilot Mi- chael Ammermüller (Germany, SWITCH IT Lechner Racing), his teammate Clemens Schmid (Austria) and Germany’s David Jahn (Attempto Racing) rounded off the top ten. The second Porsche Junior, Klaus Bachler (Austria, Team Deutsche Post by tolimit), finished in 18th. His 911 had been damaged in a light collision in lap one. The grid line-up for the 80 kilometre race on Sunday is determined by the quickest qualifying time. Sean Edwards and Kévin Estre share the first grid row. In spots three and four sit Michael Christensen and Nicki Thiim, with René Rast and Jaap van La- gen taking up the race from the row three. The fourth race of the season starts at 11.15 hours tomorrow and will be broadcast live on the official Porsche website (www.porsche.com) in high quality –with editorial clips prior to the actual live-streaming, live-timing and a commentary in German and English. On May 7th, the Monday after the race weekend, news station N24 televises the 30-minute “Porsche Carrera Cup Magazin” at 18.30 hours. Sport1 broadcasts Carrera Cup highlights on 12 May, from 13.15 to 13.45 hours. Dr. Ing. h.c. F.

I had to give 100 percent from the first to the last lap. At the beginning I made a braking error and I was really afraid I’d flat-spotted the tyre. I had practiced a couple of starts and that paid off today.” René Rast (second): “I’m really very happy with second place. It’s the most I could do today. Towards the end I was running close to Nicki but then I made a mistake and lost contact a bit. Tomorrow it’ll be hairy but I’ll try to make up some places.” Sean Edwards (third): “My start was okay but the first corner was pretty tight. I had to avoid someone and that threw me back into seventh. I then fought my way up the field. The three at the front were so intent on their fight that I managed to easily catch them. The duel with Kévin was great and I finally overtook him towards the end. We touched slightly but it was all fair. Tomorrow I start from pole position. There’s only one thing for it: get a cracking start, pull away and win the race.” Michael Christensen (Porsche Junior, sixth): “I earned some good points today and that’s important. But I’m not entirely satisfied. I noticed that both the car and I have potential, but in my opinion I made too many mistakes.” Klaus Bachler (Porsche Junior, 18th): “My start went okay, but I got held up slightly in the first lap and collided with Clemens Schmid on the straight. Afterwards the front right of my car was damaged. I had strong understeer and couldn’t drive as fast anymore. Now I’m just hoping that things will be better tomorrow.” Dr. Ing. h.c. F.

  • Earl Bamber Moves Into Overall Lead Earl Bamber Celebrated His Second Win of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup Season
    newsroom null Aug 24, 2014 Earl Bamber moves into overall lead Earl Bamber celebrated his second win of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season. In Spa, the Porsche Scholarship pilot moved to the top of the overall points’ standings. When the field set off into the eleven-lap race on the 6.973 kilometre circuit, Bamber immediately pulled to the front of the field in his 460 hp Porsche 911 GT3 Cup which is based on the seventh generation of the 911. But after several hundred metres, the New Zealand slid sideways in the legendary Eau Rouge passage, opening the door for Thiim to sneak past. After his scare, the 24-year-old, who contested his 50th race in a Porsche at Spa, caught the Dane and launched a hefty attack to regain the lead spot. Once Bamber finally managed to squeeze past Thiim in lap six, the path was clear to clinch his second win of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season. “Our fight was tough but very fair,” said Thiim (second place) summing up events. “Earl’s a great racer,” he admitted. Third place went to Porsche junior Klaus Bachler (A/Konrad Motorsport). “Fastest in free practice, pole position, victory and now the points’ leader – what a perfect weekend. I’m over the moon,” exclaimed a beaming Bamber. Porsche junior Klaus Bachler pleased with third place Bachler seemed very pleased with third place: “I started from fifth on the grid and ended on the podium. I love the challenge Spa presents and I earned important points.” Porsche junior Sven Müller (D/Team Project 1) managed to salvage fourth place despite coming under heavy fire from his trailing teammate Philipp Eng (A/Team Project 1).

  • Press Release June 19, 2011 No
    Press Release June 19, 2011 No. M 57/11 Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland, round 4 on the Lausitzring Nicki Thiim narrowly wins turbulent race Stuttgart. Fourth race, fourth winner – and 24 laps of high suspense: The Lausitzring race of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland was a real thriller. Cup-returnee Nicki Thiim from Denmark won his first race at Germany’s one-make series brilliantly but by a very narrow margin. Only 0.3 seconds separated the Hermes Attempto pilot from Sean Edwards (Great Britain, Deutsche Post by tolimit) in second. Third place went to Nick Tandy. Driving for Konrad Motorsport, the Briton heads to round five - which takes place at the Porsche Carrera World Cup as the season highlight - as points’ leader. On 25 June at the Nürburgring, more than 100 competitors from one- make race series worldwide tackle the greatest Porsche race in history. Fans were treated to gripping racing already at the start of round four on the 3.478 kilometre Lausitzing. Tandy, who started from fourth, took the outside line and in the first corner surprised pole-sitter Thiim and second in the qualifying, Supercup cham- pion, René Rast (Germany, Förch Racing), by passing them. Behind the leading trio a turbulent scene developed. The first victim was reigning champ Nicolas Armindo. The Frenchman (Hermes Attempto Racing) became sandwiched between two oppo- nents and landed in the gravel trap. Two laps later it was René Rast’s turn: out after a light nudge from Robert Renauer (Germany, Herberth Motorsport). Uwe Alzen (Germany, PZ Aschaffenburg Uwe Alzen Automotive) retired as a result of the colli- sion with Armindo.
