The season finales of the FIA WEC in Bahrain are known for their drama, with the pressure on teams and drivers to perform before the off-season. This year is no different with emotional farewells and new beginnings on the horizon, especially at Porsche where milestones mark the end of an era. Porsche aims for a historic sweep of FIA WEC Hypercar titles, with changes in their driver roster signaling a shift towards the future. Drivers like Andre Lotterer and Fred Makowiecki are facing departures, while new talents like Julien Andlauer are stepping in. Lotterer is determined to end his Porsche career on a high note by fighting for the FIA WEC Hypercar Drivers’ title in his final race for the factory prototype team. Looking ahead, Lotterer’s future in motorsport remains uncertain, with discussions ongoing for a potential move to another manufacturer or a different role within Porsche.
