To help contain the coronavirus from further spreading, Porsche is practicing its societal commitment by temporarily shutting down some of its facilities, including the Porsche Museum. However, Porsche will stay in touch with enthusiasts by offering them the opportunity to refresh their knowledge about the different Porsche racing and series production cars, as well as letting their children indulge in some fun activities.
Starting on April 7, some of the most successful Porsche racing drivers will, for the first time, answer questions from followers on the Instagram page of Porsche Museum.
Kicking off the question-and-answer sessions is Stephane Ortelli, who in 1998 clinched one of the 19 overall Porsche victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Over the next two weeks, Ortelli will be followed by other racing legends who had conquered the legendary endurance race at the Sarthe circuit, not to mention set records for Porsche. These drivers are Hans-Joachim Stuck, Marc Lieb, Kurt Ahrens and Mark Webber—stars all. The Le Mans drivers will take questions from their own homes, and hope to provide cheer in these difficult times.
Besides these chat sessions with drivers, the Porsche Museum will also be offering children special online treats. Starting on April 8, a selection of games and activities will be available on http://www.porsche4kids.com. Porsche mascots Tom Targa and Tina Turbo will guide the children, who can choose to color pictures, or solve puzzles.
Children can also explore the “Electromobility” team spirit activity online. Here, they can learn about the fundamentals and history of electric-powered mobility, beginning from the origins of electric vehicles right through the Porsche Taycan.
