The highs and lows of motorsport are evident in Porsche's experience with the Mexico City E-Prix on Saturday.

On Saturday in Daytona Beach, Florida a pair of brand new 911 RSR made their North American debut during the 24 Hours of Daytona.

When the first race of the season kicked off in Saudi Arabia a couple of months ago Porsche looked pretty strong, particularly with the experienced Formula E racer André Lotterer at the wheel.

Porsche has invested heavily in esports racing, and has developed a crew of high-level sim racers.

This car asks far more questions than it answers. Originally built to race in the 24 Hours of Lemons series by Vali Motorsports, it's clear that this car's theme is "Does that even run?" and holy hell does it run. In as-shown spec it is running a 300-horsepower 3.6-liter flat six [it's certainly not a GT3-spec engine as is claimed in the video, …

Many think it takes self-belief that borders on megalomania to graze a mountain road's guardrails in a turbocharged 911. As it turns out, some of the race-bred machines of this era and configuration are planted and confidence-inspiring—even when it's wet out.

Porsche joined Formula E this season with a reasonably successful debut in the opening round. How did our favorite sports car brand get to this point? How much work, effort, simulator testing, manufacturing, and testing had to be completed to get two finished cars and teams ready to ship off to Diriyah for the first e-Prix of the season? As it …

Porsche looked ready for a mega scrap during this weekend's 8 hour race in Bahrain, the fourth round of the 2019/20 FIA World Endurance Championship. After having locked out the front row in GTE Pro qualifying, both Porsches ran incredible races across the first half of the extra-long race. Because of its length this round of the …
