Marcus Amand and Flynt Schuring have been named as the two Porsche Juniors for the 2026 motorsport season.
The two 19-year-olds prevailed in a shootout involving a total of twelve talented youngsters earlier this month.
The 12 drivers were nominated from across the many Porsche One-Make Series by either regional Carrera Cup championships or as wildcards.
The four-day selection process began at the Porsche Esports Performance Centre (PEPC) in Cologne, before drivers headed to the Circuito Estoril in Portugal.
