If Porsche is prepared to give Team Verstappen its GT3 cars + spare parts as
quid pro quo for free publicity, improving its chances to get top results thanks to Team Verstappen with Max as brand ambassador: why not ?
Max is not only interested in the Nürburgring 24h race, but very likely also in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Le Mans 1983:
Helmut Marko (yes, him) won the 1971 Le Mans race with the Dutchman Gijs van Lennep in a Porsche 917 KH.
