Lechner Racing Porsche Supercup

The first free practice of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season 2019 at the Circuit de Catalunya near Barcelona turned out to be a quite promising start for the three Lechner Racing teams, with a Top Three sweep and five drivers finally ending up in the Top 8.

Six reigning or former champions of different Porsche Cup series – that´s the driver line-up for the six cars of the three  Lechner Racing Teams in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2019.  

Michael Ammermüller of BWT Lechner defended his Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup Title in the last race of the 2018 season, while  Roar Lindland of Team Lechner Racing Middle East won the ProAm Championship – it could not have been a better end of the season for Lechner Racing in Mexico. 

Team BWT Lechner Racing secured the Team Championship in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2018 already in the first race in Mexico-City: With Michael Ammermüller finishing in P2 and Thomas Preining in P3 behind winner Julien Andlauer, the team has now an advantage of 45 points over Fach Autotech, with only 38 points available tomorrow. 

It was a good start into the weekend of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup final at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico-City for BWT Lechner Racing:  Championship leader Michael Ammermüller set the fastest time towards the very end of the free practice session with a 1:43.648, with his teammate Thomas Preining following about one tenth behind.

It has already been a very successful year for BWT Lechner Racing – but there is even more to come: After winning three titles in the German Porsche Carrera Cup, there are now three others at stake  in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup  final 2018 this weekend in Mexico.  From 26^th to 28^th of  October, the last two races of the season at the “Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez” will decide the championship in all categories – with the BWT Lechner cars and drivers being  very strong title contenders  in three of them.

BWT Lechner Racing transformed a complete pink front row into a one-two victory at the eighth race of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2018 at Monza: Porsche Junior Thomas Preining claimed his fourth win of the season, ahead of teammate Michael Ammermüller, leaving local hero Mattia Drudi of Italy behind in third place:

BWT Lechner Racing scored a great  result in qualifying for the eighth race of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2018  at Monza: In the fastest qualifying session this year so far, Michael Ammermüller secured his second pole position of the season after  Barcelona, just ahead of his teammate Thomas Preining – while it took more than three hours for the final classification to be released due to ongoing discussions about track limits.
