Porsche team

Several motorsport works for the automobile manufacturer Porsche operate under the name Porsche Team . In 2016, Porsche was active in motorsport with works outings in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and the United SportsCar Championship (USCC). There are also various customer vehicles used by private teams and 20 Porsche brand cups . In the past, Porsche was also active with works teams in formula racing and rallying . During this time, some of the reports were made under the names of Dr. Ing.hc. F. Porsche KG or Porsche System Engineering .

Beginnings in motorsport

Porsche 550 A, built in 1957, in the paddock of the Nürburgring at the 1978 Oldtimer Grand Prix

No. 92: Porsche RSK 1500, built in 1958, at the 1981 Oldtimer Grand Prix on the Nürburgring

Porsche's first works outing in motorsport was in 1951 at the Le Mans 24-hour race , after private drivers such as Walter Glöckler , Otto Mathé , Rudolph Sauerwein and Heinrich Graf von der Mühle-Eckart had already made the brand known in the previous three years. In Le Mans, Porsche competed with two 356/4 Coupés , which had previously been tested in Montlhéry and achieved a lap average of 145 km / h there. Only one of these cars started the 24-hour race with a 1.1-liter engine. It was driven by the Porsche importer for France, Auguste Veuillet , and Edmond Mouche , who won their class and finished 20th in the overall ranking. With an output of 32 kW (44 hp) at 4000 rpm, an aluminum body and a weight of 640 kg and, in contrast to the production model, covered wheel arches, the Porsche reached a top speed of 160 km / h.

The works team achieved another success in 1951 on the Lüttich – Rome – Lüttich long-distance journey, in which Huschke von Hanstein / Peter-Max Müller finished second in their class with an 1100. Race director Paul von Guilleaume and Graf von der Mühle drove a coupé with a 1.5-liter engine in the same rally and finished third in the overall classification. From September 29 to October 2, 1951, record drives followed in Montlhéry with the drivers Peter-Max Müller, Walter Glöckler, Huschke von Hanstein, Richard von Frankenberg and Hermann Ramelow. They drove 10,968 km in 72 hours, or an average of 152.35 km / h.

In 1952 Veuillet / Mouche repeated their success at Le Mans and Count Giovanni Lurani / Count Konstantin Berckheim won the Gran Turismo class up to 1500 cc in the Mille Miglia with a Porsche light metal coupé . On the Liège – Rome – Liège long-distance journey, the works drivers Huschke von Hanstein - meanwhile head of the “Press, Sport and Advertising” department at Porsche - and Peter-Max Müller came tenth in the overall classification after an accident, while the private drivers Polensky / Schlueter started the rally Porsche won.

In the first two years, Porsche used Type 356 Coupés as works cars, while Walter Glöckner drove an open, self-made Porsche-based one. The second version of the Glöckler-Porsche was a mid-engine car with a 1.5-liter Porsche engine that developed up to 62 kW (85 hp). This roadster, with which Walter Glöckner's cousin Helm Glöckner won the sports car class up to 1500 cm³ at the ADAC Eifel race in 1952, inspired Porsche to build the 550 type . The 550 and from 1956 the 550 A were not only driven as a roadster or Spyder, as the open-top Porsche racing cars were called, like the Glöckler-Porsche, but also with a coupé attachment.

At the same time as work on the Type 550 began in 1952, the development of the Fuhrmann engine named after its designer , Type 547, which ran for the first time in training for the Eifel race at the Nürburgring at the end of May 1953 and was driven by Hans Stuck at the Schauinsland hill climb in June . Regular use began in 1954 at the Mille Miglia , in which Hans Hermann / Herbert Linge with a Porsche 550 Spyder finished sixth in the overall ranking despite minor technical difficulties. In contrast to the previous Porsche boxer engines with a central camshaft , the type 547 had two overhead camshafts per cylinder bank and dual ignition. The engine block, cylinder and cylinder head were made of light metal. With a displacement of 1498 cm³, the first version of the engine developed 80 kW (110 hp) at 7800 rpm. From 1955 the Porsche 356 was available as the “Carrera”, also with the 4-camshaft engine. In the 1000 km race at the Nürburgring in 1956 , two privately registered Porsche Carrera and 1500 GS took first and second places in the Gran Turismo class with a displacement of up to 2 liters. Max Nathan / Gerth Kaiser drove the race distance of 44 laps in 8: 54: 36.9 hours or with an average of 112.6 km / h.

In the years that followed, Porsche works teams took part in almost all of the major long-distance races with the 550 and its successors, as well as with the 356, and in the races of the European Hill Climb Championship, which was first held in 1957. In 1957, Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips in a Porsche 550 A in Lenzerheide and on Mont Parnes and Edgar Barth in a Porsche RSK 1500 won the Schauinsland hill climb

As the successor to the 550, the Porsche 718 or 1500 RSK appeared in 1957, initially with an output of the 547 engine increased to 104 kW (142 hp) at 7500 rpm. With a tubular space frame that was lighter than the 550, the vehicle weighed around 530 kilograms when ready to drive. Outwardly, the RSK was particularly recognizable by the more rounded rear with two large air inlet openings covered with grids. The greatest success for the Porsche RSK with a 1.5 liter engine was the overall victory of Edgar Barth / Wolfgang Seidel at the Targa Florio in 1959, ahead of three other Porsches. At 1000 km of Nurburgring were Umberto Maglioli / Hans Herrmann with a 1.6-liter RSK fourth overall and winner of the sports car class up to 2 liters. They drove the distance of 1003.640 km in 7: 40: 57.00 hours. However , there was no success at Le Mans in 1959. After Porsche opted for new camshafts, all three works cars as well as two privately registered RSKs and a 550 finished the 24-hour race prematurely. In 1958, Hans Herrmann / Jean Behra and Edgar Barth / Paul Frère took third and fourth places in the overall classification in a Porsche RSK at Le Mans.

Sports car and GT

Racing car class GT

The following classes existed in GT racing ( FIA GT championship ) until 1999 : The GT1 class consisted of top-class racing cars, of which at least 25 street legal copies had to be built. In addition to the Porsche 911 GT1 , Mercedes CLK GTR / LM , the McLaren F1 GTR with a BMW V12 engine and the exotic front engine -GT1 from Marcos and Panoz were also represented . After the overwhelming successes of Mercedes in 1997 and 1998, which Porsche could not match (apart from the lucky double victory at the Le Mans 24-hour race in 1998), the opponents withdrew, whereupon the GT1 class ceased completely from 1999 and the FIA ​​World Championship was only driven out of former GT2 vehicles as GT and a new, less powerful N-GT vehicle category.

In the GT2 and later GT classes, the air-cooled Porsche 993 GT2 Turbo dominated until the French ORECA team took part with the Chrysler Viper GTS-R . This car has a powerful eight-liter V10 front engine, which the Turbo- Porsches, which were too restricted by air flow limiters , had little to counter. Porsche left this class to the competition without a fight and did not develop a new liquid-cooled racing car for the GT2 class, although a production model derived from the Turbo was later called that.

Instead, they switched to the new near-series N-GT class, where customer teams with a good 400 hp naturally aspirated engine based on the Porsche 996 GT3 fought for years with almost no foreign competition brands. In the United States , BMW competed in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS) with an M3-GTR , which, however, was implanted with a V8 engine with four liters displacement instead of the standard in-line six-cylinder in 2001 due to lack of performance. Since BMW was only able to show a very few copies of the associated “production model”, corresponding conditions were imposed, whereupon the V8 BMW no longer competed in the ALMS and was only used again at the Nürburgring from 2003 to 2005 . More recently, Ferrari has sent a worthy opponent with the 360 and 430 into the class dominated by Porsche for a long time, which has since been renamed from N-GT to GT2. Porsche itself did not follow the new naming scheme introduced by the FIA ​​in 2005 and continued to sell the GT2 racing version of the 911 as the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR .

In addition, in 2006 the FIA ​​introduced the GT3, a class below the GT2, aimed at brand cup vehicles from different manufacturers. In order to adapt different concepts, the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup is used as a reference vehicle at the beginning of each year in the so-called Balance of Performance classification , after which the vehicles can be used by interested private teams in various national championships. Although Porsche with its one-make cup vehicle Cup already had a car for the GT3, the racing department developed a specially tailored to the regulations version called for the 2008 season Cup S . In 2010, the revision based on the current road model under the designation 997 GT3 R followed. Unlike the previous model 996, the RSR, which continues to be offered, was not an evolutionary stage of the GT3 R, but an independent model line for the GT2 regulations.

FIA World Endurance Championship (LMGTE, since 2012)

Since the introduction of the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2012 , Porsche has been represented in the LMGTE class by the factory. In 2012, the Felbermayr-Proton team ran a Porsche 911 GT3 RSR . Manthey-Racing has been taking over the works since 2013 . At the end of 2013, 51% of Manthey was taken over by Porsche.

FIA World Endurance Championship (LMP1, 2014-2017)

In 2013, Porsche decided to enter the FIA ​​World Endurance Championship, which has existed since 2012, with a factory LMP1 program from 2014 . The entry was made under the name Porsche Team . Two Porsche 919 Hybrids were used in the first season . The first driver trio consisted of Romain Dumas , Neel Jani and Marc Lieb , the second driver trio consisted of Timo Bernhard , Brendon Hartley and Mark Webber . At the end of the season, the 6-hour race in São Paulo , Dumas, Jani and Lieb scored their first victory. In the manufacturers' championship, Porsche finished third behind Toyota and Audi .

For the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship , the driver trios remained unchanged. In addition, Porsche fielded a third Porsche 919 Hybrid in two races - including the Le Mans 24-hour race . Earl Bamber , Nico Hülkenberg and Nick Tandy were signed up for this vehicle . The three drivers managed to win the Le Mans 24-hour race straight away. It was the first LMP1 outing at Le Mans for all three drivers and only Tandy had previously taken part in the race. It was Porsche's 17th overall victory in the Le Mans 24-hour race and the first since 1998. The victory came on the very day after Porsche's first Le Mans victory 45 years ago. In the two races that followed, at the Nürburgring and in Austin , two more victories for Bernhard, Hartley and Webber followed.

The Porsche LMP1 program was confirmed until 2018. Nevertheless, Porsche decided in July 2017 to discontinue the LMP1 project at the end of the year.

United SportsCar Championship (GT Le Mans, since 2014)

For the launch of the North American United SportsCar Championship racing series in 2014 , Porsche set up a sports car works team in the United States for the first time. As in the FIA ​​World Endurance Championship, the Porsche 911 RSR is used. The races in the GT Le Mans class, which operate under the name Porsche North America , are carried out by the US racing team CORE Autosport .

Formula racing

Although Porsche's motorsport commitment in the last few decades has mainly focused on sports car races, Porsche has also been active as a chassis and engine supplier in formula racing at various times , including Formula 2 and Formula 1 , sometimes with its own works team. The most successful connection was with the British Formula 1 team McLaren , with which Porsche won three drivers' world championships as an engine supplier.

Formula 2

Formula 2 Porsche 718 (1960)

After Formula 2 went through a period of weakness in the mid-1950s, in which sometimes only a few races were held per year, the class regained its strength from 1957. In 1957, for the first time in a long time, individual races took place outside of Great Britain, and from 1958 to 1960 there were numerous events on the European continent, occasionally even in North Africa.

In 1958, Porsche entered the factory for the first time in a Formula 2 race. The team used the 718 that emerged from the Porsche 550 racing car . From 1958, this type of vehicle was converted to a center link for Formula 2 races and was finally used in racing as an open monoposto in 1960 .

At the 1958 Berlin Grand Prix at the AVUS , Porsche fielded a 718 RSK each with Jean Behra , Masten Gregory and Edgar Barth . Behra won the race by a narrow margin over Joakim Bonnier ( Borgward ). In the winter of 1958/59, Porsche built the Monoposto 718/2, which was tested on the Nürburgring and driven for the first time at the Monaco Grand Prix by Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips. On the Nürburgring, von Trips achieved a lap time of 9:29 minutes; in Monaco he dropped out in the second round after he hit a wall. The monoposto was to start at the 1959 German Grand Prix at the AVUS. However, because of Jean Behra's fatal accident the day before the race, Porsche withdrew its cars.

1960 was initially the last year of Formula 2. The British Rob Walker Racing Team repeatedly entered a Porsche 718 with Stirling Moss , which won twice, in numerous races . The Porsche works team also appeared irregularly. At the German races on the Solitude and on the Südschleife of the Nürburgring , the works team was represented with three and four cars respectively. At the Solitude, the Porsche drivers Bonnier, Hans Herrmann , Graham Hill and Dan Gurney finished two to five behind Ferrari driver Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips , at the Nürburgring Bonnier won, who also won the Gran Premio di Modena two months later Winner came to the finish. In the annual ranking, however, Porsche was behind Cooper .

From 1961, regulations were introduced for Formula 1 that were based on those of the previous Formula 2. Formula 2 was over; until the end of 1964 there were no more Formula 2 races. For Porsche, the “inevitable step” was to switch to Formula 1.

Engagement as a designer (1961–1964)

Joakim Bonnier in the Porsche 804 at the 1962 German Grand Prix at the Nürburgring

The Porsche 718 could also be used in Formula 1 in the 1961 season , after the engines were limited to 1.5 liters for safety reasons and thus former Formula 2 vehicles were now allowed to compete in this class. The vehicle turned out to be too weakly motorized, but Bonnier and Gurney regularly achieved the points. In France , Italy and the USA , Porsche even achieved second places in these races due to the high failure rates of the competition. In the meantime, the Porsche 787 was used as a further development, but without achieving any placements in the points. Porsche finished the year in third place in the constructors' standings behind Ferrari and BRM .

In the 1962 season , Porsche entered the 804 , which was specially tailored to the newly developed eight-cylinder 753 engine. In addition, Carel Godin de Beaufort continued to drive the 718 as a private driver. The results with the 804 were fluctuating: Gurney won the French Grand Prix and came third in Germany , but otherwise he and Bonnier only achieved two places in the points. In the constructors' championship, Porsche therefore achieved fifth place behind BRM, Lotus , Cooper and Lola . At the end of the season, Porsche withdrew from formula racing because, on the one hand, many components had to be laboriously delivered by manufacturers from England and, on the other hand, the development of formula vehicles hardly brought any results that could be transferred to series models. For the penultimate race of the season, the 1962 US Grand Prix , Phil Hill was supposed to drive for Porsche and replace Bonnier, who did not feel well in health. Hill had previously been fired from Ferrari. But the world champion only had one training session because Bonnier drove the race.

In the following seasons of 1963 and 1964 , de Beaufort continued to race the Porsche 718, but was only able to score one point in sixth place in the 1963 Belgian Grand Prix and 1964 United States Grand Prix . He had a fatal accident while training for the 1964 German Grand Prix . Gerhard Mitter entered the German Grand Prix in 1963 with a 718 from de Beaufort and achieved fourth place.

First engagement as an engine supplier (1983–1987)

TAG Porsche turbo engine (1985)

The return to formula racing only came about 20 years later in the 1983 season . At the end of 1981, Porsche entered into a four-year alliance with the British racing team McLaren , which was looking for an exclusive engine for the beginning turbo era. Porsche designed the engine on behalf of McLaren. The study was financed by the Luxembourg Group Techniques d'Avant Garde (TAG) , the above-sponsor of the competition teams Williams had been and now became the name sponsor of the engine.

1983

In 1983 , McLaren competed in the Formula 1 World Championship mainly with naturally aspirated Ford engines. At the Dutch Grand Prix , Niki Lauda drove a McLaren MP4 / 1E for the first time, which was equipped with Porsche's turbo engine; his team-mate John Watson also received a turbo vehicle in the following race. The car, however, was not fully developed. Some reports speak of a "hastily cobbled together car". Lauda dropped out twice, Watson three times, due to technical defects. In the last race of the season in South Africa , the MP4 / 1E did not finish either, but was rated for the first time. Lauda finished eleventh here after having to park his car six laps before the end with an electrical damage. At that point, Lauda had been in second place.

1984

The following year , McLaren was more successful. Lauda and Alain Prost won twelve of the season's 16 races with the McLaren MP4 / 2 , with three double victories, securing the team victory in the Constructors' World Championship, in which McLaren had a lead of 86 points over Ferrari. A tough duel for the drivers' title broke out within the team, which Lauda finally won with a half-point advantage. In 1984 McLaren-Porsche scored a total of 143.5 points in the constructors' championship.

1985

In the 1985 season, McLaren-Porsche retained the driver pairing Prost and Lauda. Prost dominated the season. He finished on podium eleven times during the season. Prost won in Brazil , Monaco , Great Britain , Austria and Italy and was also second twice and third four times. Until the European summer races, Prost and the Ferrari driver Michele Alboreto competed for the intermediate lead in the world championship. Thereafter, Alboreto fell back through five early failures. Prost secured the drivers' championship in the third last race, the European Grand Prix . Niki Lauda, ​​the reigning world champion, scored just 14 points; he finished tenth in the drivers' championship and ended his active motorsport career at the end of the year.

1986

In the 1986 season Prost was able to defend his world title. A change in the regulations regarding the maximum permissible gasoline consumption required fuel-efficient driving from 1986. This required a fuel-efficient design of the car and a cautious and at the same time foresighted driving of the pilots. Prost dealt with this requirement better than Keke Rosberg, who joined the team for Lauda . He won four times - twice at the beginning and twice at the end of the season - four times second and three times third. The decision about the world championship was open until the last race of the season in Adelaide . Prost's competitors were the Williams drivers Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell , who led the drivers' standings before the race. On lap 64, a tire on Mansell's Williams burst at a speed of 320 km / h; the car was badly damaged and Mansell retired. As a result, tires were also changed at Piquets Williams for safety reasons. Prost was pushed forward and eventually won the race and the world championship by two points over Mansell. The constructors' championship, however, went to the Williams team with 141 points, whose drivers had achieved a total of nine wins.

1987

McLaren MP4 / 3, used in the 1987 Formula 1 season

For the 1987 season , McLaren developed a completely new vehicle with the MP4 / 3 and presented Stefan Johansson as the successor to Rosberg. The vehicle was tailored to the new Formula 1 regulations of the turbo era, which limited the amount of fuel carried in a race to 195 liters. However, the success in the races was limited compared to previous years. Prost was able to win three races and take four more podiums, and Johansson achieved a total of seven finishes in the points, three of them on the podium. With a total of 76 World Championship points, however, the team had to admit defeat again clearly Williams; In the drivers' championship, Alain Prost also fell back to fourth place behind Mansell, Piquet and Lotus driver Ayrton Senna .

At the end of the season, the collaboration between Porsche, TAG and McLaren also ended. The background was different developments of the turbo era: The competing teams increased the boost pressure of the engines in the runs for qualification and were thus able to call up more power, the Porsche engines were not designed for this. In this way, the McLaren vehicles tended to start the race from worse starting positions. In addition, retrofitting the engines did not seem very promising: In addition to the high costs and effort, the fact that it was decided as early as 1986 to ban the use of turbo engines at the end of the 1988 season spoke against it .

Second engagement as an engine supplier (1991)

Footwork-Arrows A11C with Porsche engine in the Motor-Sport-Museum at Hockenheimring

Porsche 3512 V12 Formula 1 engine (1991)

In 1991 , Porsche returned to Formula 1 as an engine manufacturer. After the so-called turbo era had come to an end at the end of 1988, Porsche had developed a 3.5-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine with a bank angle of 80 degrees and center output . The chief designer of the engine known as the Porsche 3512 was again Hans Mezger, who was already responsible for the TAG turbo engines. The engine was considered long, heavy and voluminous. Allegedly, Porsche had proposed a 12-cylinder engine to its then partner McLaren as the successor to the TAG turbo back in 1987. Steve Nichols , the chief designer, was not convinced by the design and said that the engine presented would fit better in a Leyland bus.

Initially, the British Onyx team was discussed as a partner , which made its Formula 1 debut in 1989 and achieved extraordinary success with a racing car designed by Alan Jenkins for a new competitor. However, after the financing of the racing team was not secured in the winter of 1989/90 and the Belgian investor Jean-Pierre Van Rossem had damaged the team's reputation with criminal connections, Porsche withdrew. The choice fell instead on the established midfield team Arrows , which had a Japanese investor and had been renamed Footwork in view of this. Footwork started using Porsche's engine in the Arrows A11C and Footwork FA12 vehicles from spring 1991 . The races of these vehicles were disappointing, however: With the A11C used in the first races of the season, the drivers Michele Alboreto and Alex Caffi partially failed in qualifying. The A12 fared no better either. In seven missions, only three qualifications were made, and each of these missions ultimately ended in failure. The Porsche engine was an elementary part of this deficiency: it was too big and too heavy and, despite its relatively high output, drastically impaired driving behavior. In addition, there were problems with the oil cooling and the transmission, which each led to the failures. After the Mexican Grand Prix , the cooperation between Footwork and Porsche was therefore ended by mutual agreement; the team then continued the season with engines of the Cosworth DFR type , but this improved the situation only slightly by the end of the season.

Plans to return to Formula 1

In 2010, Porsche was considering returning to Formula 1 for the 2013 Formula 1 World Championship . However, there was no entry into Formula 1.

American formula racing

CART vehicle used by Porsche from the 1989 season

Porsche has been active several times in the IndyCar and Champ Car sector. A first attempt by the Interscope team to use the modified engine of the Porsche 935 in the 1980 season , which the organizer United States Auto Club refused because of fear that the engine would not be competitive. In 1987 , Porsche then entered as its own team with a vehicle and the drivers Al Unser and Al Holbert . Although no finish was recorded in two races, Porsche used the experience to contest the 1988 season as a whole with driver Teo Fabi . The March 88P chassis was used here. The vehicle was designated the Porsche 2708 CART , and Fabi finished tenth in the drivers' championship, with his best result being fourth at the Nazareth Speedway . The 1989 season turned out to be even better , again on a March chassis: Fabi won the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and achieved three more podium finishes, placing him fourth in the drivers' championship.

After these encouraging results, Porsche fielded a second vehicle with John Andretti as driver in the 1990 season . Originally its own chassis made of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic was presented, but this was rejected, so that Porsche again relied on March as a partner. The results were mixed, however: Fabi only achieved third place at the Meadowlands Grand Prix as the only podium place and in the end 14th place in the drivers' standings; Andretti, on the other hand, did not manage to place on the podium, but collected a total of 51 points, which was enough for 10th place in the ranking. After the end of this season, Porsche withdrew from the IndyCar series, team leader Derrick Walker continued racing under the name Walker Racing .

FIA Formula E Championship

In July 2017, Porsche announced that it would take part in the FIA Formula E championship as a works team from the 2019/20 season . Neel Jani and André Lotterer , both of whom had already driven for Porsche in the WEC, were signed up as drivers .

Porsche vehicles were also used in rallying . Here, for example gained Vic Elford and Björn Waldegård each in 1968 and 1969 and 1970, the Monte Carlo Rally in a Porsche 911 . Porsche was also able to win the International Championship for Manufacturers in 1970 as the forerunner of the World Rally Championship (WRC). In the short-lived Group B of the 1980s, a rally version of the Porsche 959 was also used.

Brand cups

In 2015 there were 20 Porsche one-make cups , all of which use the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup . The one-make cups are divided into the worldwide Porsche Supercup , eight regional Porsche Carrera Cups and eleven regional Porsche GT3 Cup challenges .
