“The Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland is booming. I’m delighted by the large field of starters, the great depth of ability and the fantastic mix of professional drivers, up-and-coming youngsters and enthusiastic amateurs,” says Andrea Hagenbach, Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland general manager. “To be able to present such a strong participant field so far ahead of the start of the season says a lot about the appeal of our series.”
