Hartley heads Toyota front row lockout over Ferraris in the Algarve | World Endurance Championship
Brendon Hartley secured Toyota their first pole position of the WEC season ahead of the Six Hours of Portimao, while Kamui Kobayashi ensured a front-row lockout for the manufacturer.
Hartley’s best time of a 1’30.171 was enough to secure pole for the number eight car, two tenths quicker than the number seven. The two Ferrari 499Ps of numbers 50 and 51 will start behind the Toyotas, both over 1.5s slower than the pole time.
When the session began, the Glickenhaus car driven by Romain Dumas was the first car to set a representative time, before the number eight Toyota driven by Brendon Hartley jumped immediately to the top of the times with a 1’30.480 – easily the quickest time of the weekend. The two Ferraris of number 50 with Nicklas Nielsen and James Calado’s number 51 car could not get within a second of the Toyota, before the second number seven Toyota piloted by Kamui Kobayashi moved to second, just over a quarter of a second slower than its team mate.
With less than five laps remaining, Hartley pulled the number eight Toyota into the pit lane to end his session early. He was soon joined by Kobayashi in the second Toyota, leaving the number eight car on provisional pole position. Any threat of Toyota being ousted from the front row quickly evaporated as the two Ferraris also retired to the pit lane, joined by the two Porsche Penskes and the Cadillac car.
As the final two minutes ticked down, only the two non-hybrid hypercars of the Glickenhaus and the Vanwall remained on track. Frederic Makowiecki ventured out in the number five Porsche with under two minutes remaining, but did not have enough time to begin a final flying lap.
As the chequered flag flew, the number eight Toyota was confirmed on pole position, with Kobayashi’s best lap in the number seven car securing an all-Toyota front row. The two Ferraris of number 50 and 51 will start third and fourth on the grid, with the two Porsche Penskes split by the number 94 Peugeot behind.
The Cadillac car will start from eighth on the grid ahead of the second number 93 Peugeot, with the two non-hybrid hypercars of Glickenhaus and Vanwall completing the hypercar order.
Prema took pole position in the LMP2 class with the number 63 car, but are under investigation by the stewards after receiving emergency rear bodywork repairs in the pit lane while waiting for the session to begin. In GTE Am, Corvette will start on pole after Ben Keating set the quickest time in the sole C8.R in the field, two tenths of a second faster than the Iron Dames Ferrari.

Porsche Hunts 2021 Title at Belgium
The Porsche works team tackles the opening round of the FIA World Endurance Championship at Spa-Francorchamps on May 1, 2021, with two Porsche 911 RSR’s.
For the six-hour race in the Ardennes region of Belgium, the factory drivers Gianmaria Bruni from Italy and Richard Lietz from Austria share the cockpit of the car. 515-hp GT racing vehicle with the starting #91. The crew in the #92 sister car has changed from previous years: this season, Frenchman Kévin Estre, the 2018/2019 WEC champion, shares the vehicle with Neel Jani. In preparation for his WEC mission with the Porsche 911 RSR, the Swiss racer contested the final round of the 2020 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship in Sebring and took part in extensive tests.
The Race
The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps is located in the far east of Belgium close to the German border. Opened in 1921, the 7.004-kilometre racetrack is the longest dedicated racetrack on the FIA WEC calendar. With 21 corners and several long straights, the track undulates through the Walloon countryside – not surprisingly, the circuit is also known as the “Ardennes rollercoaster”. Fast passages like Raidillon/Eau Rouge and Blanchimont are as notorious as the La Source hairpin at the end of the start-finish straight.
“Our team has prepared meticulously for the 2021 season. With a top result at the opening round in Spa-Francorchamps, we’d like to send a clear signal from the very start that there can only be one goal for us: to win the world championship,” clarifies Pascal Zurlinden, Director Factory Motorsport. “Our class win in 2020 at the first round in Belgium clearly underlined that the latest version of the Porsche 911 RSR suits the special characteristics of the ‘Ardennes rollercoaster’ very well,” explains Alexander Stehlig, Head of Operations FIA WEC. “During test drives at Hockenheim, among other venues, we gave our teams and cars the final touches. At the two-day prologue in Spa, we’ll do our utmost to find the best setup for the special characteristics of this track. We’re ready to race!”
Before the start of the race weekend at Spa-Francorchamps, a so-called prologue will be held at the venue. Porsche and its customer teams take part in the two-day test session on 26 and 27 April with a total of seven 2019-generation 911 RSR.
The Porsche GT Team Drivers
In the No. 91 Porsche 911 RSR, the works team relies on Gianmaria Bruni and Richard Lietz for the third year in a row. In 2019, the experienced pair won the season-opening round at Silverstone in Great Britain. Kévin Estre, who shares driving duties in the No. 92 car with Neel Jani, travels to Spa-Francorchamps as last year’s winner. Last season, the Frenchman also won the finale in Bahrain and concluded the year ranking third. Jani returns to the WEC after competing for the Porsche TAG Heuer Formula E Team.
The Customer Teams
Dempsey-Proton Racing fields two Porsche 911 RSR at the start of the WEC season. Works driver Matt Campbell from Australia joins forces with the team owner Christian Ried (Germany) and the former Porsche Junior Jaxon Evans from New Zealand. Andrew Haryanto from Indonesia, German Marco Seefried and Alessio Picariello from Belgium have been announced as the drivers in the No. 88 sister car. The German customer team Project 1 also campaigns two 911 RSR in all six events this season. The squad from the German town of Lohne in Lower Saxony tackles round one with the Norwegians Dennis Olsen and Egidio Perfetti as well as the Italians Matteo Cairoli and Riccardo Pera. The all-British driver crew, Michael Wainwright, Ben Barker and Tom Gamble, compete for GR Racing in the No. 86 car.

Motorsport-Programm 2019
Porsche tritt in Le Mans erneut mit vier Werksautos an
Stuttgart. Im Rahmen der Motorsportgala „Night of Champions“ hat Porsche die weltweiten Erfolge seiner Teams und Fahrer in der Saison 2018 gewürdigt. Gleichzeitig verkündete der Vorstand die intensive Fortsetzung der weltweiten GT-Programme sowie eine Reihe von Neuerungen.
Bekenntnis zu Le Mans
Bei der 87. Auflage des 24-Stunden-Rennens in Le Mans tritt Porsche erneut mit vier Werksautos an. Die beiden Porsche GT Teams aus der FIA WEC und der IMSA WeatherTech Championship betreuen jeweils zwei der rund 510 PS starken GT-Renner aus Weissach. Das Cockpit der Startnummer 91 teilen sich Gianmaria Bruni, Richard Lietz und Frédéric Makowiecki. In der Nummer 92 treten die Titelverteidiger Kévin Estre, Michael Christensen und Laurens Vanthoor an. Patrick Pilet, Nick Tandy und Earl Bamber gehen mit der Nummer 93 an den Start. Im 911 RSR mit Startnummer 94 kommen die Youngster Sven Müller, Mathieu Jaminet und Dennis Olsen zum Einsatz. Auch die Kundenteams in der GTE-Am-Klasse werden ähnlich stark aufgestellt sein wie 2018. Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der FIA World Endurance Championship markieren die 24 Stunden von Le Mans das Saisonfinale der Meisterschaft.
Kader mit Klasse
Bei seinem Werksfahrerkader setzt Porsche auf Kontinuität. Alle Werksfahrer, die 2018 teil des Aufgebots waren, haben auch für 2019 einen Vertrag. Gleiches gilt für alle Porsche Young Professionals. Einziger Neuzugang im Kader ist Porsche-Junior Jaxon Evans. Der 22-jährige Neuseeländer ist aktueller Meister des Porsche Carrera Cup Australien und hat sich in einer Sichtung gegen zehn weitere Talente aus den internationalen Porsche-Markenpokalen durchgesetzt. In Summe setzt sich der Kader 2019 aus aktuell 24 Piloten zusammen.
Fortsetzung des Werksengagements in den USA
In der IMSA WeatherTech Championship geht Porsche auch 2019 mit zwei 911 RSR an den Start. Die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Team Core Autosport wurde um weitere drei Jahre verlängert. Das Cockpit des Fahrzeugs mit der Startnummer 911 teilen sich wie bislang Nick Tandy und Patrick Pilet. Bei den besonders langen Rennen in Daytona, Sebring, Watkins Glen und beim Petit Le Mans ergänzt Frédéric Makowiecki das Duo. Im Schwesterauto mit der Nummer 912 bilden Earl Bamber und Laurens Vanthoor die Stammbesatzung. Bei den Langstreckenklassikern kommt zusätzlich Mathieu Jaminet zum Einsatz.
Intensive Unterstützung von Kundenteams
Porsche setzt seine intensive Unterstützung von Kundenteams in weltweiten GT3-Rennserien fort. In diesem Umfeld kommt erstmals der neue 911 GT3 R, mit besonders effizienter Aerodynamik und einer deutlich verbesserten Fahrbarkeit zum Einsatz. Insgesamt hat Porsche Motorsport 45 Stück des Kundensport-Renners verkauft. Sowohl in der Intercontinental GT Challenge als auch im Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup bestreiten starke Fahrertrios alle Saisonrennen: Zum einen Romain Dumas, Sven Müller und Mathieu Jaminet, zum anderen Dirk Werner, Dennis Olsen und Matt Campbell. Auch in der Blancpain GT World Challenge America und dem ADAC GT Masters unterstützt Porsche jeweils mindestens zwei Fahrzeuge von Kundenteams in der Pro-Kategorie. Hinzu kommt der Kundensupport bei einer Reihe von nationalen Serien und Einzelevents.
Projekt Titelverteidigung am Nürburgring
Das Siegerteam Manthey-Racing will seinen Sieg beim 24-Stunden-Rennen auf dem Nürburgring 2019 verteidigen. Dazu schickt das Team aus Meuspath mit Werksunterstützung zwei neue 911 GT3 R ins Rennen. Das siegreiche Quartett von 2018 bleibt unverändert: Richard Lietz, Frédéric Makowiecki, Patrick Pilet und Nick Tandy wechseln sich am Steuer des Heckmotor-Rennwagens ab. Im Schwesterauto ergänzt Earl Bamber das Le Mans-Siegertrio Michael Christensen, Kévin Estre und Laurens Vanthoor. Zusätzlich unterstützt Porsche eine Reihe weiterer Teams mit Fahrern sowie technischem und strategischem Support.
Weltpremiere eines Erfolgsrenners
Der Nachfolger des erfolgreichen Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport wird am 3. Januar 2019 im Rahmen der Testfahrten „Roar before Daytona“ seine Weltpremiere feiern. Der 718 Cayman GT 4 Clubsport setzt als erstes in Serie gefertigtes Rennfahrzeug auf nachhaltig hergestellte Karosserieteile: Fronthaube, Türen und Heckflügel sind aus einem Bio-Verbundfaserwerkstoff gefertigt. Seine Rennpremiere feiert der neue Breitensportrennwagen bereits drei Wochen nach seiner Enthüllung im Rahmen der 24 Stunden von Daytona. Der GT4 komplettiert die Clubsport-Familie von Porsche Motorsport, die darüber hinaus aus den Modellen 911 GT2 RS Clubsport und 935 besteht.
Neue Gesamtleitung bei Porsche Motorsport
Zum 1. Januar 2019 übernimmt Fritz Enzinger die Gesamtleitung des Porsche Motorsports, der in der kommenden Saison neben dem GT-Sport auch die Formel E umfasst. Bislang war Enzinger mit der Leitung des LMP1-Projekts betraut und leitet seit Februar 2018 zusätzlich den Konzern-Motorsport. Der Leiter Motorsport, Frank-Steffen Walliser, der seit 2014 im Amt ist, wechselt in das Ressort des Vorstandsvorsitzenden und übernimmt dort die Gesamtleitung der Sportwagen-Baureihen 718 und 911.
Porsche Cup: Christian Ried verteidigt Privatfahrerwertung
Der Porsche Cup, die Trophäe für den weltweit erfolgreichsten Porsche-Privatfahrer, geht in diesem Jahr an Christian Ried (39). Der fahrende Teameigner von Dempsey Proton Racing durfte den Traditionspokal aus den Händen von Dr. Wolfgang Porsche, dem Vorsitzenden des Aufsichtsrats der Porsche AG, entgegennehmen. Zusätzlich erhält Ried einen Porsche im Wert von mehr als 120.000 Euro. Mit seinen Erfolgen in der FIA WEC und der European Le Mans Series sammelte er am Steuer des Porsche 911 RSR in der zurückliegenden Saison 10.348 Punkte. Der Zweitplatzierte Robert Renauer, der die Wertung 2016 gewinnen konnte, darf sich über ein Preisgeld von 30.000 Euro freuen. Der Franzose Julien Andlauer gewinnt als Dritter 25.000 Euro. Der Porsche Cup wird seit 1970 vergeben und beruht auf einer Idee von Ferry Porsche

Otra Victoria Para Toyota Gazoo Racing en 6h Bahrein
Toyota Gazoo Racing continúa el dominio total de la 9na temporada del Campeonato Mundial de Resistencia. El fabricante no solo se llevó otra victoria, sino que también ya aseguró el título de constructores.
El Toyota GR010 Hybrid Hypercar #7 conducido por Jose María López, Kamui Kobayashi y Mike Conway se llevó la victoria en las '6 Horas de Baréin esta tarde, la penúltima carrera del Campeonato Mundial de Resistencia FIA 2021 y extendió su ventaja de puntos en busca de un segundo Campeonato del Mundo de Pilotos de la FIA.
El Toyota #8 de Sebastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima y Brendon Hartley se ubicó en segundo lugar después de perder el contacto con el auto de sus compañeros tras sufrir pequeños problemas en las paradas en boxes durante la carrera. Con el resultado de hoy, Toyota sella el Campeonato Mundial de Resistencia FIA Hypercar 2021 para fabricantes y equipos.
HYPERCAR
Toyota Gazoo Racing logró un resultado de 1-2 por segunda carrera consecutiva, mientras que Jose-Maria Lopez, Kamui Kobayashi y Mike Conway lograron su tercera victoria consecutiva de la temporada 2021. Kobayashi condujo hasta la meta el Hypercar #7 GR010-HYBRID después de liderar la mayor parte de la carrera que se lleva a cabo en condiciones sofocantes de calor.
El Hypercar #8 GR010-HYBRID de Sebastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley y Kazuki Nakajima tuvo que conformarse con el segundo lugar después de perder mucho tiempo en boxes en relación al auto #7. El Alpine ELF Matmut A480 #36 se colocó en tercera posición, con una vuelta menos que los Toyota después de perder algo de tiempo en la primera hora después donde sufrieron un toque y tuvieron un pequeño problema técnico.
LMGTE PRO
Kevin Estre y Neel Jani se llevan la tercera victoria de la temporada en la LMGTE Pro después de una exhibición impecable del equipo del Porsche GT Team #92. La victoria significa que Estre y Jani están ahora a solo un punto de Calado y Pier Guidi en la pelea por el título a falta de una prueba.
Porsche disfrutó de una ventaja en el ritmo durante toda la carrera con el Porsche #91 acoplado en el segundo lugar. Richard Lietz y Gimmi Bruni pasaron gran parte de la carrera a pocos segundos del Porsche #92 y obtuvieron su mejor resultado de la temporada.
Calado y Pier Guidi ocuparon la tercera posición en la Ferrari AF Corse #51 y los ganadores de las 24 Horas de Le Mans en la división mantienen una ligera ventaja en la pelea por el título que llegará al final el próximo fin de semana en el mismo circuito de Sajir. Miguel Molina y Daniel Serra se adjudicaron el cuarto puesto en el Ferrari 488 GTE Evo # 52.
LMP2
El equipo WRT se lleva la segunda victoria consecutiva, con Ferdinand Habsburg, Robin Frijns y Charles Milesi ejecutando una brillante estrategia de conservación de neumáticos para liderar el LMP2. El equipo JOTA fue segundo con el #28 de Stoffel Vandoorne, Tom Blomqvist y Sean Gelael, que se superó una difícil etapa inicial en la que el auto se retrasó en el orden después de una colisión con el Aston Martin 98.
Filipe Albuquerque, conduciendo la máquina del United Autosports USA, tuvo una entretenida batalla con Blomqvist al comienzo de la última hora, pero el piloto portugués finalmente tuvo que ceder el puesto.
El Oreca #38 del JOTA con Anthony Davidson, Antonio Felix da Costa y Roberto González ocupó el tercer lugar, lo que significa que se mantienen en la contienda por el título con una ronda restante. Da Costa hizo un sobrepaso emocionante sobre su compatriota para la posición final del podio en LMP2 en la curva uno, en la que los coches hicieron contacto brevemente, a solo 15 minutos para el final.
Racing Team Nederland y Realteam Racing luchan en la batalla Pro/Am en una emocionante pelea de última hora. Después de saltar a la cabeza de la LMP2 al inicio de la carrera, Giedo van der Garde superó a Loïc Duval con 35 minutos para el final para asegurar la victoria de la división Pro/Am y sellar el quinto lugar en la general.
El Richard Mille Racing se adjudicó el mejor resultado de la temporada, ya que Beitske Visser, Sophia Floersch y Gabriel Aubry terminan fuertes en sexto lugar. El Oreca #34 del Inter Europol Competition sufrió una sucesión de problemas y una penalización para abandonar la contienda por un puesto entre los seis primeros después de una estrategia agresiva al principio de la carrera.
LMGTE AM
El TF Sport #33 se llevó la primera victoria de la LMGTE Am de 2021 cuando Ben Keating, Felipe Fraga y Dylan Pereira aguantaron la carga tardía de Porsche. La tripulación de Aston Martin recupera puntos en la carrera por el título, ya que el líder del campeonato con la Ferrari #83 AF Corse solo pudo lograr el quinto lugar.
Fraga terminó la carrera con un doble turno para superar a los Porsche #77 Dempsey Proton y #56 Team Project 1 y sumar la primera victoria de la temporada para Aston Martin.
Matt Campbell amenazaba con atrapar a Fraga, pero no pudo acercarse lo suficiente y se conformó con la segunda posición delante de Matteo Cairoli, Egidio Perfetti y Riccardo Pera, que acabaron en tercera posición con el Porsche.
LA ÚLTIMA
La final de la novena temporada del Campeonato Mundial de Resistencia será el 6 de noviembre en Bahrein. La carrera será a 8 Horas.

WEC confirms 13 Hypercar entries for 2023 season | World Endurance Championship
The full season entry list for the 2023 World Endurance Championship has been published, and features 13 cars in the top Hypercar class.
Toyota return to defend their 2022 title with the all-star line-up of Sebastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryo Hirakawa. The second GR010 Hybrid will be driven by Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Jose Maria Lopez, who won the title together in 2020 and ‘21.
Their main 2022 rival Alpine, which raced a grandfathered LMP1 car, are gone, but Toyota now face opposition from several other manufacturers.
The most anticipated new entry is Ferrari, who have filled their 499P prototypes by promoting several of their GT stars and also giving a second chance to their Formula 1 reserve driver Antonio Giovinazzi after he failed to land an F1 seat for 2023.
Cadillac, who are planning to enter F1 with Andretti Autosport but have that team’s arch rival Chip Ganassi Racing running their Hypercar, have brought 2017 WEC champion Earl Bamber, Alex Lynn and Richard Westbrook across from their IMSA line-up.
ByKolles Racing meanwhile has had its Vanwall-branded car accepted as an entry and with a crew consisting of Formula V8 3.5 champion Tom Dillmann, World Touring Car ace Esteban Guerrieri and 1997 F1 world champion Jacques Villeneuve. Despite his race-winning experience in prototype sports car racing, Dillmann is rated as a Gold driver by the FIA rather than a Platinum like his team mates and the majority of the Hypercar entry list.
Penske will run two of the four Porsche 963s
There will be four of the new Porsche 963s, and run by three different teams. Team Penske are running two ‘factory’ entries in affiliation with Porsche, and their line-up includes the likes of WEC GTE Am class champion Kevin Estre, Formula E’s Andre Lotterer and one of Porsche’s leading GT stars Laurens Vanthoor.
Jota Sport’s line-up is led by Euroformula Open and European Le Mans Series champion Yifei Ye. Proton Competition have two-times WEC GTE Pro champion Gianmaria Bruni on their books. Their team mates are yet to be confirmed.
Peugeot have two full-time entries and both are being run in-house. In the first car is former F1 driver Paul di Resta, IMSA LMP2 champion Mikkel Jensen and two-times FE champion Jean-Eric Vergne, and the second car will be piloted by 2013 World Endurance champion Loic Duval, 2016 WEC LMP2 champion Gustavo Menezes and DTM star Nico Muller, a continuation of the line-up the team finished 2022 with.
The final Hypercar entry is Glickenhaus Racing. The American team so far only have two-times Le Mans 24 Hours winner Romain Dumas signed to drive their car.
The official entry list published today also included 11 LMP2 entries and 14 in the LMGTE Am class. The new WEC season will begin at Sebring in March.

Porsche: The Road to the World Championship Title
As the Porsche 911 RSR rolls on to the grid at Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium) on May 5, 2018, it begins its second season in the FIA Sports Car World Endurance Championship. The model has already notched up two race wins in North America, as well as the North American Endurance Cup (NAEC), which includes the prestigious endurance races at Daytona, Sebring, Watkins Glen and Road Atlanta. However, there is one thing still missing from resume of the most sophisticated 911 ever: a world championship title. Exactly one year later, at the penultimate round of the 2018/2019 Super Season, this major goal is ticked off.
Scoring positions third and eighth from the six-hour race at Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium), Porsche has claimed an early world championship title win in the GTE-Pro class of the World Endurance Championship WEC. Now with 246 points, the sports car manufacturer from Weissach heads to the final round of the 2018/2019 Super Season at Le Mans holding an unassailable lead in the manufacturers’ championship.
The highlight: Double victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Clinching a double victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June 2018, Porsche impressively underlines its title aspirations. At the long-distance classic in France, the two ca. 510 hp Porsche 911 RSR from the WEC turn up sporting the legendary “Rothmans” (No. 91) and “Pig” (No. 92) designs, thrilling fans not only from a sporting perspective but on an emotional level as well. Michael Christensen from Denmark and his two factory driver teammates Kévin Estre (France) and Laurens Vanthoor (Belgium) score a commanding victory in the fiercely competitive field of manufacturers in the GTE-Pro class. Their Porsche colleagues Gianmaria Bruni (Italy), Richard Lietz (Austria) and Frédéric Makowiecki (France) put the icing on the cake for Porsche with second place. The enormous potential of the Porsche 911 RSR is clearly evident, particularly in qualifying. Lapping the track in 3:47.504 minutes, Bruni sets a convincing new lap record for GTLM vehicles.
The key: Lights-to-flag win with consistently strong performances
At the 2018 season-opening round at Spa-Francorchamps, the Porsche factory squad Manthey Racing lays the foundations for the world championship title: With Estre/Christensen finishing on second, and Bruni/Lietz on fourth, Porsche takes the overall lead. After scoring a double victory at the Le Mans 24-hour race, a strong race at Silverstone (Great Britain) follows. While Bruni/Lietz are removed from the standings after round three of the season after initially ranking second, the No. 92 car earns important points towards the world championship with position three. After round three, the lead in the overall standings is now 36 points. The driver pairing Estre/Christensen follows up with another win at Fuji (Japan), with both Porsche 911 RSR finishing on the podium at Shanghai (China). At the first WEC race at Sebring (USA) since 2012, Bruni/Lietz celebrate their first joint victory. The lead over the opposition has now increased to 100 points. As usual, the Porsche GT Team easily wins the match point at Spa.
The secret to success: Teamwork at the highest level
“I’m immensely proud of the entire team,” says Fritz Enzinger, Vice President Porsche Motorsport. “The Manthey Racing squad are highly professional, exceptionally success oriented and always make time for some fun, which in turn has a positive effect on the team structure and performance. To be so successful in the face of such tough competition between factory teams is always the result of hard and consistent work. Pascal Zurlinden and all his colleagues have found the perfect recipe.” The factory squad is made up of around 30 highly qualified members of the racing operation. “I can only reiterate Fritz Enzinger’s praise,” declares Pascal Zurlinden, Director GT Factory Motorsport. “The team structures are modern and ideally tailored to highly competitive motor racing and the drivers make the best use of the potential. And confidence increases with each success. This is always a decisive factor in sport.”
The Sports Car World Endurance Championship WEC
In the Sports Car World Endurance Championship (WEC), which was first contested in 2012, sports prototypes and GT vehicles compete in four classes: LMP1, LMP2, GTE-Pro and GTE-Am. They all compete together in one race but are classified separately. The Porsche GT Team contests the GTE-Pro class, while the customer teams Dempsey Proton Racing, Project 1 and Gulf Racing fight for honours in the GTE-Am class.
During the first six years since the foundation of the WEC, a classic race calendar applied, with the start of the season in spring and the final round in early winter. 2018 heralded a major change. The 24 Hours of Le Mans in June is the new season finale. To implement this change to a “winter calendar”, FIA chose a so-called Super Season as a transitional model. Eight races are contested from May 2018 to June 2019. The special feature: The Le Mans classic and the six-hour race at Spa-Francorchamps are held twice during the Super Season. The following season begins at Silverstone in September 2019 and ends in June 2020 with the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Quote
You the Body, & I your shadow, Lady,
In my abiding silence, you govern
My motion, not as Hecate holds sway
Over the Shades by violence, & disarray,
But by the attraction of your excellence,
As you move me to assume my orbit
Around all you do or say, far swifter
Than a shadow chasing after its body,
Were it not for something inhuman
When our two wills fall out of tune.
Maurice Scève, ‘376.’ in Emblems of Desire: Selections from the “Délie” of Maurice Scève, trans. Richard Sieburth.
Emblem XLII: Le Vespertilion au Chauluesory: Qvand Tovt Repose Point Ie Ne Cesse: The Bat: ‘When all is at rest I do not cease’
❧
“Tu es le Corps, Dame, & ie suis ton vmbre,/ Qui en ce mien continuel silence/ Me fais mouuoir, non comme Hecate l’Vmbre,/ Par ennuieuse, & grande violence,/ Mais pas pouoir de ta haulte excellence,/ En me mouant au doulx contournement/ De tous tes faictz, & plus soubdainement,/ Que lon ne veoit l’vmbre suyure le corps,/ Fors que ie sens trop inhumainement/ Noz sainctz vouloirs estre ensemble discords.”
