It's now August so it must be the time of year to talk Porsche...
September is the traditional time that Porsche announces their plans for the following season and it looks like that tradition is not going to change.
Speed TV's 'Windtunnel' program has flagged one potential scenario that Porsche might follow - and it isn't good.
They have said that due to the success for their customer program for the RS Spyder, that they will not be continuing with the factory support for Penske in P2.
Tim Cindric of Penkse Racing said, of the rumour, that he "...hopes it is not true..."
The FMSC View
So this could be one of four things in our view:
1. Penske pulls out - that is bad
2. Penske continues without factory support - that could be ok
3. Porsche and Penske continue as is - that is good
4. Porsche moves to P1, supporting Penske or someone else - that would be great.
But there was rumour everywhere last year about Porsche pulling out but they came back - could it be the same this year?
Time will tell...
