  • Porsche 919 Hybrid English.Indd
    Porsche 919 Hybrid Return to top-level sport Porsche is making its comeback to the top-level motorsport arena: with the new 919 Hybrid the sports car brand is sending a platform for pioneering technology to the top category of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) with the undisputed seasonal highlight of the 24-hour Le Mans race. Porsche's reputation precedes it at this venue: with 16 overall victories under its belt, the brand holds the record for this, the most famous endurance race in the world. In 2014 Porsche is returning to the top-level class endurance race after a 16-year absence - namely Le Mans Prototypes (LMP1). Matthias Müller, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG explains: "The new and revolutionary efficiency regulations for this class were what prompted us to take this step. In 2014 it is not going to be the fastest contender who is going to win the sports car world championship and Le Mans, but the car that gets furthest with the defined amount of energy. And it is precisely this challenge that the automotive industry has to face. The 919 Hybrid is like a high speed research laboratory and the most complex racing car Porsche has ever built." The new WEC regulations for the LMP1 racing car gives engineers an unusual amount of leeway and demands pioneering technology, such as hybridisation, downsizing engines and consistent lightweight construction. This is all particularly relevant for the development of future generations of factory-spec sports cars. Maximum sporting performance and highest efficiency are at the heart of "Porsche Intelligent Performance".

  • Michelin Delivers Excitement at Rolex 24 at Daytona
    MEDIA INFORMATION Daytona Beach, January 31, 2016 Michelin delivers excitement at Rolex 24 At Daytona The first race of the 2016 IMSA WeatherTech Championship delivered the GTLM class competition that fans anticipated and more as Michelin technical partners from Corvette, Porsche, BMW, Ferrari, and Ford battled throughout the Rolex 24 At Daytona. The 24 hour race was decided by a mere 34 thousandths of a second as the two factory Corvette Racing C7.Rs went flat out, totally free of team orders for the final 30 minutes. The 2015 Le Mans 24 GT class winners Oliver Gavin, Tommy Milner, teaming here with Marcel Fassler, held off a stirring challenge by the defending Rolex 24 Hours At Daytona GTLM champions, Antonio Garcia and Jan Magnussen, here with Mike Rockenfeller, to claim a dramatic victory. “Our goal at Michelin is to enable all of our technical partners to perform at their very best and we are pleased that our teams ran at exceptionally high levels in all conditions throughout the weekend” said Chris Baker, director of Motorsport Michelin North America. “The fact that Michelin-equipped GTLM took the first 7 places overall during the wet qualifying session was gratifying and the consistency of our products in dry conditions - at the blistering pace set by the two Corvettes and the #912 Porsche during the last two hours of the race - was very satisfying as well,” said Chris Baker. Having taken the lead from Porsche North America’s Earl Bamber with 35 minutes remaining, Oliver Gavin tried to establish a lead that could withstand a charge by Antonio Garcia who had more fuel and fresher Michelin tires.
