La Carrera Panamericana | Making history in a 718 Cayman GT4 RS Panamericana Special
What does racing mean to you? For me, racing is living in the present. The present moment and the present time. It’s when you’re only focused on what’s going on at that particular moment. The turn behind doesn’t matter, and two turns ahead of you, you don’t really care yet,
So that’s the beauty of racing for me. Bye, have a good day! When you race, all your senses are alive. You’re just really aware of your surroundings. The sight, the smell, the vibrations, all of those things are just on point, and that’s what I love. And then I feel like myself again.
It’s the people. The people in Mexico are amazing! I mean, you feel it inside the car. Fercho! Fercho! Yeah, I mean, we’re closing roads that they use, so we are messing up with their days, right? We are messing up with their lives, we are messing up with the things they need to do,
And we´re so thankful that you pass and it’s a smile. Nowhere that I have been, or that I have ever raced, it’s remotely similar to this. When you get to the start line, it’s the moment to stay focused. To be present. To breathe. And then the countdown begins. Five. Four. Three. Two One.
Go! At the moment, I have one thing, thinking all the time: to be the fastest. That’s all folks. See you next year.
Since the first edition of La Carrera Panamericana in 1950, people believed that those who accepted the challenge had to be at least a little crazy. Driven by passion and inspired by wild dreams, they had to put aside their fears and face the toughest obstacles.
Watch as Porsche drivers Benito Guerra, Diego Cándano and Fercho Urquiza repeat the feat in the 2023 edition of La Carrera Panamericana, fielding two unique 718 Cayman GT4 RS-based rally cars from Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur.
