  • Theo Oeverhaus has the best chance to take home the 2023 Rookie crown
  • Sören Spreng travels to the finale leading the ProAm rankings
  • Duel for the team title between GP Elite and Allied-Racing
  • Porsche-Junior Bastian Buus, Harry King and Loek Hartog battle for runner-up honours behind the newly-crowned champion Larry ten Voorde

Three championship titles are up for grabs at the finale of the 2023 Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland at the Hockenheimring (20 to 22 October). While the Dutchman Larry ten Voorde has already taken home the overall championship title, the Rookie, ProAm and Teams categories are yet to be decided. A 32-strong field of Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars will tackle the final two of this season’s 16 races on Germany’s Formula 1 racetrack.

Porsche Junior Bastian Buus heads to the finale of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland at the Hockenheimring with an ambitious goal: “I want to wrap up the season with the best possible result – two wins,” declares the 20-year-old Dane, who drives for the Bavarian Allied-Racing squad. Buus, the overall champion of the international 2023 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, had to capitulate to his long-standing rival Larry ten Voorde in the fight for the title in the German one-make cup.

However, he has the best chance in the three-way battle to clinch the vice-championship honours behind the Dutchman: Ahead of the two final races, he holds a 21-point lead over his British teammate Harry King. “Even if it doesn’t look too promising for me, I’ll give it my best shot again in Hockenheim. Second place overall is obviously my goal,” states King, who recently won three races in one weekend in the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia.

Loek Hartog, ten Voorde’s fellow countryman and GP Elite teammate, is also still in the running for the vice-champion trophy. Hartog lies 24 points behind Buus and there are a total of 50 points left to claim. “I’ve had a bit of bad luck recently. I want to finish the season well in Hockenheim,” said Hartog. In June, at the last outing of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland at the Formula 1 circuit in Baden as part of the “Festival of Dreams”, the 21-year-old won one of the two races.

Although Larry ten Voorde was already crowned champion at the last round at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, he could add to his personal record in Hockenheim: Since securing first place in a Porsche Carrera Cup Italia race two weeks ago, the 26-year-old has achieved a total of 30 victories and 100 podium finishes in Porsche’s brand cups – more than anyone else in Europe. “In June I won at Hockenheim, I think I can do it again now. But my main goal is to support GP Elite in its bid for the team championship title and help Loek improve to second place overall,” explains ten Voorde.

Three-way battle for the Rookies and ProAm titles
The titles in the other Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland classifications are still up for grabs. However, among the Rookies – including eleven young drivers from six nations – the title looks pretty much in the bag for leader Theo Oeverhaus (CarTech Motorsport Bonk). The German sits 41 and 42 points respective ahead of his pursuers, Vincent Andronaco (Allied-Racing) from Hamburg and Harri Jones (Scherer Sport PHX) from Australia. Ranking seventh overall, Oeverhaus is also the best-placed young driver from the Talent Pool of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland.

In the ProAm classification, three drivers still have realistic chances of winning the title. Only twelve points separate leader Sören Spreng (GP Elite) from Germany, Bulgarian Georgi Donchev (BG/ProfilDoors by Huber Racing) and Ahmad Alshehab (CarTech Motorsport Bonk) from Kuwait. In the Teams ranking, the GP Elite squad – with its drivers Larry ten Voorde, Loek Hartog and rookie Huub van Eijndhoven – is on a clear path to claim the title. The German team Allied-Racing, for which Porsche Junior Bastian Buus, Harry King and rookie Vincent Andronaco are competing, ranks a safe second.

Two ca. 30-minute races
The Hockenheimring hosts two 30-minute Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland races, one each on Saturday and Sunday. The one-make cup last raced on the 4.574-kilometre Formula 1 circuit near Mannheim at the “Festival of Dreams” in June. At that time, the GP Elite drivers Larry ten Voorde and Loek Hartog each won a race.

“A great 2023 season draws to a close at the Hockenheimring. The title decisions in the Rookie, ProAm and Teams rankings promise to be equally as exciting as the three-way battle for second place in the overall rankings. And with 32 Porsche 911 GT3 Cups lining up, we again have a capacity grid that guarantees some action-packed racing,” says Hurui Issak, Project Manager Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland ahead of the season finale.
