SASHA JUSTMANN AT THE HOCKENHEIMRING
Beyond his professional life, his fascination belongs to motorsport. Out of a small circle of Porsche enthusiasts, he formed a privately organised racing team — cars from several decades of Porsche GT history, driven where they belong: on the race track.
The team from Pforzheim is independent, privately financed and opens its garage to young talents without a factory background. Racing lived honestly and without compromise — and proof that enthusiasm turns into execution.
