Les Porsche suivront une grande partie de la Super Série FFSA en allant à Lédenon, Albi et Magny-Cours. Outre le passage par Le Mans During the 24 Hours weekend, the drivers will also meet at Spa-Francorchamps and Monza.

In 1970, Herrmann and Attwood offered Porsche its first victory with a 917 K at the end of the race which had the highest rate of retirements with seven cars classified out of 51 at the start. Since then, the German brand has added fifteen other successes, whether as a manufacturer or as an engine manufacturer.
