Porsche Carrera Cup Germany - Announcement
BLACK FALCON will again be competing in the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany this year, marking the third season in the world's fastest one-make cup. In the first two years the team achieved two overall victories, several podium positions and more than 10 victories in the amateur classification. For the 2019 season, the team from Meuspath is expanding the squad and has signed young professional David Kolkmann as driver of a fourth Porsche 991 GT3 Cup. Together with Tim Zimmermann, the newcomer forms a powerful duo in the fight for the team championship. In the amateur classification BLACK FALCON will again send Carlos Rivas and Sören Spreng into the race for the gentlemen's championship, which shall finally go to Meuspath after two silver medals in previous years.
In 2019, the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany will host eight events, each with two championship races each lasting 30 minutes. The DTM will serve as the stage twice, at the season opener at Hockenheim and at the season highlight at the Norisring, as well as the ADAC GT Masters six times. In the overall standings for all participating drivers it's all about the championship title of the Carrera Cup as well as the team championship. Drivers without a professional background in motorsport fight for an additional title in the amateur classification.
This year the TV station Sport1 broadcasts all Saturday races of the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany live on free TV. The Sunday races are broadcast with a time delay in the evening programme of the same day. In addition, there is a comprehensive live streaming service for all qualifying sessions and races on Porsche's official website as well as on Facebook and YouTube. Further information about the BLACK FALCON team is also available daily on the team's social media channels:
