The Porsche Motorsport teams are set to take their place at the starting lines this weekend in Belgium and the USA.
After a successful season opener for the Porsche drivers at Silverstone, the FIA World Endurance Championship heads into its second round. The race in Spa, Belgium is considered a highly important one, as it serves as a dress rehearsal for the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The Porsche GT Team will start the fourth race of the season in the IMSA SportsCar Championship at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, USA with two new 911 RSRs. At the 5,513-kilometre Grand Prix track in the Texan capital, expectations are high. Qualifying is already scheduled for today.
