    Porsche - Rookie Class

    Rookie Class

    As young single-seater or sports car drivers find the passage to a professional racing career ever more financially challenging, Porsche is extending a huge helping hand through the Rookie Championship.

    Drivers of any age entering Porsche Carrera Cup GB for the first time* will automatically be entered into the Rookie Championship to compete for exceptional prize money. Drivers must register and participate in all races during the 2018 season to be eligible for the Rookie Championship and end of season prize money.

    With a prize fund of £60,000, and £35,000 awarded to our top 2018 Rookie, we’re ensuring UK racing talent has a chance to shine and isn’t held back because of financial barriers.

    The Rookie Championship will operate its own separate points table within the championship but Rookies will also compete within one of the championship categories: Professional, Professional-Amateur or Amateur, thereby gaining the opportunity to win even more prize money from these respective classes.

    At the end of the season, substantial cash prizes are available dependent on the drivers’ finishing positions in the championship:

    1st
    £35,000
    2nd
    £15,000
    3rd
    £10,000

    *Drivers are permitted to have raced in a maximum of one Porsche Carrera Cup GB race weekend (two rounds) to be eligible for the Rookie Championship. At Porsche’s discretion, if a Rookie is unable to compete in one or more races due to circumstances outside of their reasonable control, they would still be eligible to receive prize money. Based on a driver’s racing CV, Porsche reserves the right to permit entry into the Rookie Championship.

    *Data determined in accordance with the measurement method required by law. Since 01 September 2018 all new cars are approved in accordance with the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), a more realistic test procedure to measure fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions. You can find more information on WLTP at www.porsche.com/wltp. From 01 January 2019, all fuel consumption figures are shown as determined in accordance with WLTP. CO₂ figures will be shown as NEDC-equivalent values, as CO₂ based taxation will continue to be based on an NEDC value (derived from WLTP) until 06 April 2020. Fuel economy and CO₂ emission figures are only intended as a means of comparing different types of vehicles tested under the same test cycle. New WLTP homologated vehicles are therefore not directly comparable with any vehicles tested under NEDC.

    Values are provided for comparison only. To the extent that fuel consumption or CO₂ values are given as ranges, these do not relate to a single, individual car and do not constitute part of the offer. Extra features and accessories (attachments, tyre formats etc.) can change relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics which may result in a change in fuel consumption and CO₂ values. Additionally, weather and traffic conditions, as well as individual driving styles, can all affect the actual fuel consumption, electricity consumption, and CO₂ emissions of a car.
