The Le Mans-winning Porsche 919 Hybrid on a night-time drive through Shanghai
The Porsche 919 Hybrid that scored three 24 Hours of Le Mans wins between 2015 and 2017 may have been retired, but it is currently enjoying a worldwide tribute tour which, after Spa-Fraoncorchamps and Nürburgring, now takes it to Shanghai.
Instead of completing a lap of honour at Shanghai’s international circuit where it claimed two World Endurance Championship (WEC) victories in 2015 and 2016, the Porsche 919 Hybrid took a drive through the vibrant city’s streets. Astonished passers-by were treated to a truly magical night-time performance.
The no18 IDEC Sport Oreca won a dramatic Goodyear 4 Hours of Silverstone, Jamie Chadwick, Mathys Jaubert and Daniel Juncadella recording their third win of the season to put them back in contention for the 2025 ELMS title at the season finale in Portimão next month.
Young Frenchman Théo Pourchaire will make his maiden appearance at the wheel of the Peugeot 9X8 at the 2025 8 Hours of Bahrain before officially joining Team Peugeot TotalEnergies for the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship.
The entry list for the upcoming Asian Le Mans Series that begins in Sepang this December will feature a mammoth 48 full season entries across the three classes, the largest ever for the ALMS, with all three championship winning teams returning to defend their titles.
