Four race drivers from four countries came out on top against more than a hundred applicants in a two-stage selection process in the Porsche Motorsport Junior shootout. In preliminary interviews and at fitness checks at the University of Potsdam, 19-year-old Ralph Boschung from Switzerland, 21-year-old Mikkel Jensen from Denmark, the 20-year-old German Dennis Marschall and 18-year-old Thomas Prein-ing from Austria proved to be in top form. During practical tests on the Lausitzring, the finalists underlined their driving potential at the wheel of the 460 hp Porsche 911 GT3 Cup. The new Porsche Junior for the 2017 Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland will be decided in a few weeks after the evaluation of all data from the various stages of the selection process.
