BWT and Windhager Set for the 2026 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup Season with BWT Lechner Racing
With the upcoming Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season approaching, BWT and Windhager are continuing their successful motorsport partnership together with BWT Lechner Racing. United by performance, innovation, and responsibility, the collaboration enters the new season with strong momentum and a clear ambition to compete at the highest level.
Building on their established cooperation, BWT and Windhager once again join forces with the renowned Austrian racing company Lechner Racing – one of the most successful teams in international Porsche one-make racing. The partnership brings together three Austrian companies with a strong global presence. With BWT continuing as title sponsor, the collaboration with Windhager takes the next step in 2026 with a shared BWT–Windhager livery, combining the globally recognized BWT PINK with Windhager’s bold RED.
The driver lineup reflects both proven performance and emerging talent. Robert de Haan continues his successful journey with BWT Lechner Racing. After securing the Rookie Championship in 2024 and finishing second overall in the 2025 season, the young Dutch driver enters the new campaign as one of the leading title contenders. Racing with car number 1, he will once again compete in the iconic BWT PINK race suit and helmet. Caleb Sumich from Australia joins the team’s lineup, representing Windhager in bold RED race gear. Completing the lineup is Finnish driver Marcus Amand, who joins the team as the Porsche Junior 2026, bringing fresh ambition and determination.
From early June to September, the championship features seven race weekends alongside selected European Formula 1 Grands Prix. Driving identical Porsche 911 Cup 992.2 cars, the field competes in tightly contested races where performance, engineering precision, and team strategy ultimately determine success. The season opens in Monaco and concludes with the traditional Grand Finale in Monza.
„Lechner Racing is proud of its long-standing reputation for developing young talent and producing more champions than anyone else in the Porsche Supercup paddock. Personally, I am thrilled to welcome Robert de Haan back and to introduce two more future winners, Marcus Amand and Caleb Sumich, to the BWT Lechner Racing family. I am sure we do have a very strong line-up for the upcoming season,“ says Robert Lechner, Team Principal BWT Lechner Racing.
