Porsche's new Le Mans LMP1 car, the 2015 919 Hybrid, has been tested on the marque's private test facility in Weissach, Germany.
Porsche's test driver, Marc Lieb, drove the 919.
“The roll-out of a new race car is always a milestone, and anticipated with great excitement by everyone involved,” said Alexander Hitzinger, Technical Director LMP1.
“It was our target to get the Porsche 919 Hybrid for the 2015 season on its wheels before Christmas, and now we have achieved this.”
The first meaningful test with the new race car, which has been significantly developed compared to the 2014 model, is scheduled to take place from January 18 to 22 in Abu Dhabi.
