At this year’s Geneva Motor Show (3 - 16 March) Porsche is putting the emphasis on its return to the highest level of international sports car racing.
The highlight is the world premiere of the new Porsche 919 Hybrid for the top LMP1 category of the World Endurance Championship (WEC) in 2014, with the 24 Hours of Le Mans as the undisputed highlight of the season.
The new efficiency-based regulations of the WEC stipulate innovative hybrid drives; the 919 Hybrid can therefore be regarded as a research laboratory for the technology of future Porsche production vehicles.
The innovative LMP1 race car will be flanked on the stage in Geneva by the Porsche 911 RSR which will also be racing in all eight rounds of the WEC this season, in the GT category.
