Matteo Cairoli wins talent search and tackles Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup

The Italian race driver Matteo Cairoli is the winner of the Porsche Interna-tional Cup Scholarship challenge.

The 18 year old receives funding of 200,000 Euro toward his 2015 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup campaign.

In addition, Cairoli receives support on his path to a professional racing career.

The former Porsche works driver Sascha Maassen accompanies him to all race weekends as a driver coach. Moreo-ver, he will mentored in the fields of fitness, media relations and psychological train-ing.

At the shootout in Valencia, Spain, Cairoli managed to beat eight other candi-dates from international Porsche brand trophy series.

Over two days, all candidates had a chance to demonstrate their aptitude both on and off the race track.

Fast laps on the “Circuit Ricardo Tormo”, technical under-standing of the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and compelling interviews were just some of the skills and accomplishments expected from the aspirants.

The level of driving abil-ity of the nine drivers from eight countries was very high.

But ultimately it was Matteo Cairoli, nominated by Porsche Carrera Cup Italia, who proved the most convincing.

“After closely analysing all the data we chose Matteo Cairoli. He is extremely talented and at such a young age he has a great deal of potential. We look forward to seeing him contest the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup in 2015,” says Jonas Krauss, Manager of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup.
