example, the g-Force Precision training.

The main objective is to teach you how to

control the dynamics of your car – without

the help of electronic aids.

With our Master RSR training you will learn,

for example, how to drive 911 GT3 Cup

cars safely. Working in small groups with

individual attention ensures rapid progress.

The courses offered by the Porsche Sport

Driving School are extremely diverse and

flexible. The only fixed part of the course:

driving enjoyment.

In the end, at the Porsche Sport Driving

School, we have only one goal: to help you

safely achieve yours. In everyday driving

and, of course, on the racetrack. And so

we offer you opportunities for increasing

your driving safety and expanding your

driving skills. From the basics of car

control through to applying for your own

racing licence. You decide where the

journey will go – and we will show you how

to get there. Step by step. At different

training levels. At one of the 16 locations

currently available. With identical

standards throughout the world.

Anything but standard: our special

courses. Solely and exclusively designed

to provide training on specific skills. For

The journey from car driver to professional racing driver is long. We can show you the shortcut.

Philosophy

12 13

During the driving training, there will

usually be two instructors per group. Each

section is preceded by instructions from

the experts and while you are busy

perfecting your driving skills, each and

every one of your exercises is being

monitored. This not only guarantees your

safety, but also optimum learning

achievement.

If required, we can of course also provide

you with a personal instructor. They will

give you their full attention. And of course

their wealth of experience.

How to book and further details can

be found in the section on ‘Additional

Services’ starting on page 54.

Just as important as our cars and the

racetrack? Our instructors, who have one

thing in common: passion for Porsche, and

the ability to handle cars well. They are

people who understand their field. And

know all about it – right down to the last

detail. From years of experience and

regular training on how to achieve the

optimum line.

They therefore have lots of enthusiasm for

the Porsche brand. A passion that they will

be pleased to share with you. Behind the

wheel of a Porsche. On one of the many

racetracks that we offer. Always with a

view to supporting you. So that you will

learn how to gain better control of your

Porsche, and be able to assess the driving

conditions in every phase, so that you can

react accordingly.

The training methods used by our instructors: they let actions speak for themselves.

factory tour or a visit to the Porsche

Museum.

We will, of course, provide the Porsche

vehicles required for your event. We can

also offer a range of other services, from

organising accommodation in a hotel of

your choice to the necessary transfers.

And, naturally, we will take care of the

planning for your event so that you can

concentrate on what is most important:

your guests. Because, in addition to good

conversation, there will be a lot of

attention given to the experiences on the

racetrack. So there will be plenty to talk

about, even if the driving course might

take your breath away.

Reward yourself or others in a special way

– on the racetrack for instance. In a

training event held by the Porsche Sport

Driving School. The challenge: to give

everything one more time. On the straight

sections. And on every bend. The reward:

great emotion – the feeling of driving a

Porsche.

We are happy to put together tailor-made

packages in consultation with you, such as:

• Seminars and conferences

• Product presentations

• Customer events and private functions

• Staff incentives

You can also combine your event with

a range of additional programmes and

activities, including driving events, a

The best bonus: another lap.

Incentives

If required, we can provide you with a

911 GT3 Cup car for the racetrack. This

includes special coaching and a mechanic

to support you.

Which racetrack? You choose. A whole

racetrack can be hired exclusively for a

programme. Or, with our support, you can

take part in other training events. Of

course the package will always include all

of the safety-relevant aspects of a Porsche

Sport Driving School event.

As you can see, our One-2-One

programmes leave nothing to be desired.

Book an exclusive programme to meet

your exact requirements: for a person or

a small group of friends and Porsche

enthusiasts. With individual content, an

exclusive framework and a motor racing

aspect. Not forgetting: a whole lot of

driving fun.

Your ideal programme may extend over

one or more days. Even when it comes to

designing the content, you are in control:

arrange the points of the programme you

require with the Porsche Sport Driving

School team and your personal instructor.

Even the choice of car leaves nothing to

be desired: your own car and of course all

Porsche hire cars are most suitable for

a direct training experience.

We don’t just bring dreams to the road. But your personal wishes too.

At the same time, attention is paid to the

potential dangers of everyday road traffic.

Particularly important factors here are

learning to estimate speed and being able

to react quickly. You will practise taking

evasive action and experience the effect

that even slight differences in speed can

have on the intensity of load changes,

gradually simulating driving conditions in

which the car threatens to oversteer.

It reacts to every steering movement you

make and puts it into action exactly. If you

consider it the other way around, this

means that the more accurately you steer,

the more control you will have and the

safer your driving will be. And that is

exactly what is practised on this course.

Porsche Tour of Croatia is the right tour

for you. Here, the route takes you past

towns, and on winding mountain roads –

always at the wheel of a Porsche with the

wind in your hair.

Naturally, this is just a small selection

foretaste of the unforgettable time you

can expect to have.

Our Porsche Tours will take you throughout

is created. And, of course, how it feels –

behind the wheel of a Porsche.

Pure driving enjoyment can also be found

on the Porsche Tour of the Black Forest. It’s as if it were made for quenching the

thirst for corners – with a drive through

dense pine forests, green mountain

pastures on idyllic country roads. Where

we belong.

A bit further afield is the Porsche Tour of Scotland which takes you into the heart of

the Scottish Highlands with ancient castle

ruins on the shores of deep blue lakes, set

against endless lush valleys and barren

The best souvenir of any tour: your own memories.

demonstrating the impressive performance

and protection that Mobil 1 provides.

Mobil 1 sees motorsport as the ideal

area for developing new technologies and

putting them into practice. For example,

the 911 GT3 Cup race cars in the Porsche

Mobil 1 Supercup and in the international

Porsche Carrera Cups – as well as all other

Porsche race cars – are driving with

the latest Mobil 1, based on the innovative

Mobil SHC Synthetic Technology. And

Mobil 1 is also always there on the

production line: every Porsche engine

leaving the factory is filled with Mobil 1.

Cups across the world, the 911 GT3 RSR

and the 911 GT3 R in various national and

international GT Championships and the

Porsche sports cars in the Porsche Sports

Cup Deutschland. And of course the

919 Hybrid which, in 2015 and 2016, took

the 17th and 18th Porsche overall victory

at Le Mans in the most important long-

distance race in the world. Porsche trusts

the quality of Michelin tyres – on the road

and on the racetrack.

Mobil 1 Innovative developments, high-quality

engineering and advanced technology.

Qualities shared by Porsche and Mobil 1.

The partnership between both companies

was formed in 1996 and has resulted in

tremendous success on the racetrack,

Michelin Porsche and Michelin enjoy a long and

extremely successful collaboration.

Through its pioneering developments in the

field of high-performance tyres, Michelin is

contributing to Porsche being able to meet

its exacting customer requirements.

Every Porsche is guaranteed to have

superb handling characteristics. This is

due in no small part to the fact that

specific tyres are manufactured for each

individual model. The main link between

the car and the road, the tyre is designed

at an early stage in the vehicle

development process.

Michelin is currently equipping the

911 GT3 Cup race cars for the Porsche

Mobil 1 Supercup and the Porsche Carrera

A Porsche principle: maximum performance is best achieved by teamwork.
