FIA WEC Bahrain
Schaeffler und Porsche reisen als Weltmeister zum WEC-Finale
Das Saisonfinale der FIA-Langstrecken-Weltmeisterschaft (WEC) am 17./18. November in Bahrain nehmen Schaeffler und Porsche als frischgebackene Weltmeister in Angriff.
Noch ist zwar ein Rennen der FIA-Langstrecken-Weltmeisterschaft (WEC) 2017 zu absolvieren - das gro e Ziel haben Schaeffler und Porsche aber bereits vorzeitig erreicht: Beim vergangenen Event in Shanghai reichte Earl Bamber, Timo Bernhard und Brendon Hartley ein zweiter Rang, um vorzeitig den WM-Titel in der WEC-Fahrerwertung zu gewinnen. Bei einem Vorsprung von 42 Z hlern ist das Trio nicht mehr einzuholen. In der Herstellerwertung sind Schaeffler und Porsche ebenso nicht mehr vom ersten Gesamtrang zu verdr ngen. Damit gewannen beide Unternehmen zum dritten Mal in Folge nach 2015 und 2016 beide WM-Titel.
Zum Saisonfinale 2017 reist der WEC-Tross nach Bahrain. Das letzte Saisonrennen wird auf dem 5,412 Kilometer langen Bahrain International Circuit ausgetragen. Der Grand-Prix-Kurs im Westen des Inselstaates ist bereits seit der WEC-Deb tsaison 2012 fester Bestandteil des Kalenders. Bei drei Starts zwischen 2014 und 2016 feierten Schaeffler und Porsche 2015 einen Sieg.
In der Motorsportszene ist die WEC als ein besonders hartes und zugleich ideales Testlabor f r innovative Antriebstechnologien bekannt. Ein passendes Umfeld f r ein Unternehmen wie Schaeffler, das in der Entwicklung von Hybridsystemen f r Serienfahrzeuge Pionierarbeit leistet. Der Porsche 919 Hybrid, der in der K nigsklasse LMP1 zum Einsatz kommt, wird sowohl verbrennungsmotorisch als auch elektrisch angetrieben.
F r Schaeffler ist die Motorsportsaison 2017 mit dem WEC-Lauf in Bahrain beendet. Aber nur zwei Wochen sp ter (2./3. Dezember) geht es f r den Technologiekonzern mit dem Auftakt zur Formel E 2017/2018 in Hongkong weiter. In der innovativen Elektrorennserie ist Schaeffler seit der Deb tsaison 2014/2015 engagiert. Das Team Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler gewann mit Fahrer Lucas di Grassi 2017 den Fahrertitel.
