History

5,000 kilometres, 37 minutes

More than 40 years ago Porsche made its last attempt to win the Safari Rally. The beautiful 911 SC, Björn Waldegård and Vic Preston Jr. had what it takes. However, the 5,000-kilometre rally decided differently.

Here, the men and women of Porsche give a behind-the-scenes glimpse of their work, from their own unique perspective, as well as the lowdown on current developments.

Episode 12 – Wet Mode

Episode 12 of the 9:11 Magazine presents the 992 on a special trip to the Atlantic Ocean, explains the new Porsche Wet Mode and looks back at the two 911 RSR cars in their rain-affected race at Spa, where they won the WEC world championship title one round before the final race.

The R Group

The members of the R Gruppe in California have indulged their special passion for Porsche for 20 years – and aren't worried about either bad weather or the opinions of others. There is only one guiding principle for this clique from California: there are no rules.

Battling the rain in Spa

Poor weather, a tense atmosphere – in spite of the turbulent conditions, Porsche and the two 911 RSR cars secured the world championship title in the FIA World Endurance Championship one round before the final race.

Back to the Roots

With the new 911 Speedster, Porsche is presenting a Heritage Design package—the first in a series of iconic design options for the sports cars of today and of the future.

Right in the Middle

Fifty years ago Porsche brought the mid-engine from the racetrack to series production with the 914. The latest incarnations: the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 and the 718 Boxster Spyder.

Back to the Future

The world’s first car race started in Paris 125 years ago. In December of 2019 Neel Jani will enter the first Formula E race in Porsche’s history.

Double Pleasure

It used to be that only a Porsche with manual was a true Porsche. Not anymore. The advantages of the dual-clutch transmission are too great to ignore.

Merry Band of Misfits

The members of the R Gruppe in California have been indulging their special passion for Porsche for twenty years.

The More Things Change

Even though it’s been open for a decade, there’s still a lot to discover at the Porsche Museum in Zuffenhausen. An exclusive look at the exhibits.

Go for It

There’s no instruction manual for getting started in the world of motorsports. Karting is one possibility. The Porsche Racing Experience is another.

Purism & Performance

They are light-footed, despite following in great footsteps: the new Porsche 718 T and the 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport.

Arrival

The latest generation of the 911 meets its forbear while Dr. Wolfgang Porsche explains what gives porsche its legendary quality.

Let there be light:

Stronger. Racier. Sharper

All words to describe the new generation of the classic sports car from Zuffenhausen. What are the special features of the new 911? Porsche designers Peter Varga (exterior) and Ivo van Hulten (interior) explain.

Thinking One Step Ahaed

It’s 6:36 p.m. Time for a quick stop at Porsche Digital in Ludwigsburg. The lights are still on, because the team headed by CEO Thilo Koslowski is envisioning the future. The world premiere of the new Porsche 911 heralds three digital developments that reveal how the Porsche company is expanding beyond the car itself into new horizons.

Speed Date

A tennis star meets a world champion endurance racer. They don’t sit down and chat about performance and success, but instead go out and practice serving and driving. A fast-paced encounter between Angelique Kerber and Mark Webber.

Timeless Master

To win the Targa Florio you need an extremely sensitive foot on the accelerator. Many drivers swear by the creations of shoemaker Francesco “Ciccio” Liberto, who has been making footwear for race-car drivers for more than fifty years. We drop in on the master—together with Gijs van Lennep, winner of the last great Targa Florio.

Cleaning Up

Particulate matter doesn’t stand a chance: as of September 1 of this year, all new Porsche models with gasoline engines will be successively outfitted with particulate filters, with six- and eight-cylinder models receiving two filters, one for each cylinder block.

To the Limit

The Porsche 919 Hybrid and the 917 dominated the races of their time. The final incarnation of each model was utterly dominant in its class before being retired. A meeting of these two ultimate driving machines—which, despite their age difference, have a lot in common.

Mission E

Breaking new ground and promptly taking the lead. Doing everything differently yet still decisively stamping classic Porsche virtues on the electric era. The world expects no more and no less of the first purely electric Porsche when it makes its debut in 2019. A dossier on the subject of electromobility.

Starting point:

The Golden Middle

The equator divides the earth into north and south—as it does Ecuador. A journey through the land that bears its name.

Speed record:

Only a broken leg. Yours, Annie

Annie Bousquet loved speed and stimulation. Her world-record drive in a Porsche 550 Spyder fascinated her contemporaries in 1955. But tragedy followed on the heels of triumph.

Wild at Heart

A natural paradise for Heck cattle, wild ponies, and deer is also where Porsche customers can navigate their Cayenne and Macan. This off-road terrain at Porsche’s Leipzig site is a remarkable natural habitat. For Bertram Schultze it’s simply his preserve.

His Company, His Life

Dr. Wolfgang Porsche is the face of the brand and its ambassador. In May he will celebrate his 75th birthday.
