All the details you need to know about the Porsche GB Junior programme as the application process for the 2024-25 season launches ⬇️
There can be no denying the success of the Porsche Carrera Cup GB Junior scheme at identifying talented sportscar stars of the future. Not only have each of the past four Juniors gone on to win the Carrera Cup GB title – and current Junior Adam Smalley is heading this year’s standings, too – but they have continued to impress beyond the UK series.
And now that process is beginning again as applications are open for the 2024-25 Junior programme. The key features of the scheme that have made it such a success remain: £85,000 towards the Junior’s budget across each of the two seasons, access to experienced Porsche engineers on race weekends, a bespoke fitness schedule with Porsche Human Performance, and extensive media training.
“Starting off, you have the technical aspect of the programme. Each weekend you’re given help and advice from the Porsche engineers on how to maximise your on-track performance. It helped me massively to get up to speed with the car as it was very different from any car that I’d driven before. They helped me to understand how different components work, which massively expanded my technical knowledge.
“You also spend a lot of time working with the Porsche Human Performance team. Before the Junior programme, I went to the gym but did generic exercises, but now I know what’s required to be racing fit. Working with those guys who are fully motorsport-based makes you understand which muscle groups to work to be strong in the car. They tailor a fitness programme specifically around me, which includes a training, diet and sleep programme to make sure I’m performing at the best of my ability.
