The Carrera Cup GB set a new grid record at Brands Hatch last year when a 27-car field lined up for the deciding races of the season. That marker should be bettered when the 2010 season gets under way at Thruxton, Hampshire, on April 3/4.
“This is an incredible situation for the Carrera Cup GB,” said Porsche Cars GB Managing Director, Andy Goss. “The entries for the 2010 season are impressive.

Porsche is keeping up the pace in the enhancement of efficiency combined with driving pleasure, by shifting to the next gear at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show with no less than three world debuts in hybrid technology.

A Porsche 911 GT3 R with innovative hybrid drive will be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March, taking the evolution of the iconic sports coupe to new levels in motor sport and opening a new chapter in an illustrious racing record that has witnessed more than 20,000 victories in 45 years.
Porsche Cars North America announced today that the 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo will arrive at its U.S. dealers this week and go on sale on January 30. This is only three months after the debut of the highly acclaimed Panamera, Porsche’s first Gran Turismo and sports car for four.
Developed for racing series based on the international FIA GT3 regulations, the stunning 911 GT3 R succeeds the 911 GT3 Cup S and is delivered to customers ready-to-race. The starting point in developing the GT3 R was the latest 3.8-litre Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, which will compete in the 2010 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup supporting selected Formula One races. However, the GT3 R – which weighs just 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) – has a larger 4.0-litre six-cylinder ‘boxer’ engine delivering 480 bhp and other technical developments designed to improve the performance of the car further still.
Porsche will unveil its latest 911 race car, announce an innovative racing driver development course and introduce its British motorsport programme for 2010 at the Autosport International show at the Birmingham NEC (January 14 – 17).
