In the #91 car, Richard Lietz fought his way from fourth to second place in the final 40 minutes. Likewise, Michael Christensen in the #92 Porsche, overtook a rival on the last lap to secure third place at the chequered flag. www.porscheroadandrace.com WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: #92 Porsche 911 RSR driven by Michael Christensen and Kévin Estre Porsche also had reason to celebrate in the GTE Am class when three customer Porsche 911 RSRs gave Porsche a 1-2-3 podium whitewash.

Finishing second and third earned important points towards the world championship, it also extended our lead, and we’re heading home from Shanghai feeling very happy. We’re also extremely pleased to have extended our collaboration with the Manthey Racing team for the next two WEC seasons. In the GTE Am class Porsche locked out the entire podium. I’m thrilled for all three, a fantastic job – it doesn’t get any better than that!” www.porscheroadandrace.com Gianmaria Bruni (#91): “We finished on the podium with both vehicles. That’s fantastic and I’m proud of the great team performance, particularly with the pits stops. We managed to do here what we missed out on at Fuji. For me, that’s the Porsche spirit! Richard drove brilliantly and things went well for me especially at the end, although the rain and falling darkness made conditions very difficult.” www.porscheroadandrace.com WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: #91 Porsche 911 RSR driven by Gianmaria Bruni and Richard Lietz www.porscheroadandrace.com Richard Lietz (#91): “It was a hard-fought second place and a wonderful result for the team. I’m really thrilled about that because they all worked really hard. The conditions were difficult but we opted for the right tyres at the right time. The start with all the spray was chaotic, but then it got better. I found the final 30 minutes, when dusk fell, especially tricky.” WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: On the podium in second place in the GTE Pro class were Gianmaria Bruni and Richard Lietz, drivers in the #91 Porsche 911 RSR Kévin Estre (#92): “What a huge race! The water on the track and the light conditions at the end made it super difficult. We made the most of it and didn’t make any mistakes.” Michael Christensen (#92): “That was a crazy race for us. Over the six hours it went back and forth with the positions for us. Ultimately, everyone delivered an excellent performance, www.porscheroadandrace.com that’s the best way to describe it.” WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: On the podium in third place in the GTE Pro class were Michael Christensen and Kévin Estre, drivers in the #92 Porsche 911 RSR Jörg Bergmeister (#56): “The race was interesting. I didn’t do much driving but in the end, it worked out just fine. On the penultimate lap, I managed to get past Matteo Cairoli and we finished in second place.” www.porscheroadandrace.com WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: #56 Project 1 Porsche 911 RSR driven by Jörg Bergmeister, Patrick Lindsey and Egidio Perfetti Matt Campbell (#77): “I’m over the moon with our win. The race was anything but easy. Christian had a hard time, especially at the start. When Julien climbed into the cockpit the situation eased up and the team did a super job strategically.” Thomas Preining (#86): “It certainly wasn’t an easy race. In the beginning, there was a lot of water on the track and the safety car was deployed several times. My teammate Michael (Wainwright) experienced aquaplaning and hit the guardrail. This caused quite some damage, which the team did a great job of repairing. My stint wasn’t flawless unfortunately, but we’ve made good progress since Fuji.” www.porscheroadandrace.com WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: #86 Gulf Racing Porsche 911 RSR driven by Michael Wainwright, Ben Barker and www.porscheroadandrace.com Thomas Preining finished in ninth place Matteo Cairoli (#88): “We finished on the podium in Shanghai and that’s great. The car proved difficult to drive towards the end. I did my best but ultimately the others were simply faster, so we have to take a good look at the reasons for this.” WEC, Shanghai 6 Hour, 18 November 2018: #88 Dempsey Proton Racing Porsche 911 RSR driven by Khaled Al Qubaisi, Riccardo Pera and Matteo Cairoli finished third in class Race results in Shanghai for Porsche Car Pos.
