At the end of the 2016 Federation Internationale de l'Automobile World Endurance Championship season, Mark Webber will quit his professional racing career to become a Porsche special representative.
The six-hour race in Bahrain on 19th November will be the last time the reigning World Champion from Australia will compete as a works driver. Afterwards, new tasks await the nine-time Formula One Grand Prix winner.
40-year old Mark Webber will represent Porsche at global events and as a consultant will contribute by lending his experience to the motorsport programmes of the sports car manufacturer from Stuttgart. This includes talent research as well as driver training for up and coming professionals and the huge number of worldwide Porsche amateur racers.
Alongside rally legend Walter Rohrl, Webber is now the make's second representative. Both are distinguished by a successful racing career as well as by a huge affinity to Porsche.
