  • Press Release December 16, 2019
    Press Release December 16, 2019 2019 season review: Title hat-trick, debut wins and closest finish 3,827 laps with 15,520 PS in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup Stuttgart. Thanks to a close fight for the championship title, the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup again offered gripping motor racing in its 27th season. Michael Ammermüller (BWT Lechner Racing) had to wait until the final round of the international one-make cup in Mexico City to clinch his third championship title in a row. The German is just one Supercup title short of matching Patrick Huisman’s tally. The Dutchman set the benchmark, claiming four titles in succession between 1997 and 2000. In addition to the championship decision, the 2019 Supercup season as part of the Formula 1 support programme was distinguished by many other statistics. • Five different drivers took home victories from the ten rounds this season. The high level of competition has been one of the keys to success in Supercup his- tory since 1993. In addition to Ammermüller’s four wins, Porsche Junior Julien Andlauer (F/BWT Lechner Racing) climbed to the top podium step twice. • Ayhancan Güven (TR/martinet by ALMÉRAS), Dylan Pereira (L/Momo Mega- tron Lechner Racing) and Larry ten Voorde (NL/MRS GT-Racing) celebrated their maiden victories in the international one-make cup. Over the season, ten different drivers celebrated on the podium. • Over the course of the year, a four-way fight for the title developed between Ammermüller, Porsche Junior Andlauer, ten Voorde and Güven. The two Lechner drivers, Ammermüller and Andlauer, constantly swapped places at the top of the standings.

  • Press Release August 28, 2011 No
    Press Release August 28, 2011 No. M 114/11 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, round 8 at the Formula 1 race in Spa-Francorchamps/Belgium Kuba Giermaziak’s second win increases tension in title bid Stuttgart. The suspense is mounting in the race for the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup title. At Spa-Francorchamps, VERVA Racing Team pilot Kuba Giermaziak from Po- land celebrated his second consecutive win. On the finish straight of the season he now has a good chance of capturing the trophy in the world’s fastest international one-make series. On the traditional circuit in the Ardennes, Giermaziak beat title de- fender René Rast (Germany) by 0.531 seconds in his 450 hp Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, based on the lightweight 911 GT3 RS street sports car. Competing for VELTINS Lechner Racing and with four wins to his credit so far this season, second place to- day was enough for Rast to snatch back the points’ lead. Kuba Giermaziak, who at the previous round in Budapest claimed the first victory for a Pole in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, followed up his gala performance in the wet qualifying session with a top race result on a dry track.
