Porsche Motorsport Asia Pacific is ready for an active weekend with eight Porsche cars taking on Sepang International Circuit in Thailand Super Series, while seven x seven Racing contest Round 6 of the 2025 Autobacs Super GT campaign at Sportsland SUGO, as seven entries from the marque race in the China GT season finale at Shanghai International Circuit.
In the first Suzuka 1000km for six years, Porsche’s entries put in a strong showing, earning an overall second-place finish along with Bronze victory at the famous Japanese circuit. Meanwhile, the marque clinched wins in both the GTC and GT4 classes in the Japan Cup season finale.
A Slate Grey Neo Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet turns into a long, wide, sun-baked gravel driveway, leading towards a rustic converted farmhouse. At the wheel is Porsche driver Laurin Heinrich, who has made the once-in-a-lifetime trip to meet a fellow racer. His host for the day had a career that most can only dream of and among his many successes, there is one in particular that Heinrich is here to talk about – a win in Japan’s most gruelling race, the Suzuka 1000km. We’re talking about Porsche racing icon Henri Pescarolo.
