Watch Porsche prepare its team and 919 Hybrid LMP1 for Le Mans
24 months to prepare for 24 hours.
By Jeffrey N. Ross
There are still months to go before the green flag drops at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but Porsche is working at a fever pitch to get itself ready for a return to LMP1 racing. In the latest video highlighting the 919 Hybrid, Porsche gives us a brief behind-the-scenes look at how testing is coming along as it prepares to take on the top series of Le Mans for the first time in 16 years.
Porsche only recently divulged some of the details behind its new prototype race car, but this video is just a glimpse of some of the work engineers have done in the last two years to get ready for this year's race. Aside from some new driving shots of the car, this video is really just a big tease as we wait to see the car without its camouflage. At this point, though, we don't know which looks more exciting: actually driving the 919 Hybrid, or getting to spend some time in Porsche's racing simulator.
