<\/p>\nThe end of an era: the Hankook London E-Prix on 15 & 16 August brings not only the Formula E season to a close, but also the racing career of the Porsche 99X Electric – and the GEN3 era at large.<\/p>\n
With five World Championship titles to date, the all-electric race car is already the most successful model of Formula E\u2019s third-generation and the most successful single-seater in the history of Porsche.<\/p>\n
After winning the Manufacturers\u2019 World Championship at the Tokyo E-Prix at the end of July, Porsche is still in contention for two further titles. Pascal Wehrlein sits third in the Drivers\u2019 standings, just five points off the lead. Championship leader Jake Dennis, from England, also drives a 99X Electric for Porsche customer team Andretti.<\/p>\n
The Porsche factory team heads into the finale second in the teams\u2019 standings, 14 points behind. The points scored by Wehrlein\u2019s Swiss teammate Nico M\u00fcller also count towards this classification. M\u00fcller remains mathematically in title contention, 44 points behind the leader. Given the deficits, Porsche can only secure either title in the second London race on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Historic look recalls the successes of the 1980s<\/p>\n
In 2026, Porsche celebrates 75 years of motorsport, a history that began in 1951 when the Porsche 356 SL took a class victory at Le Mans. As the 99X Electric contests its final races this weekend, the brand will mark its motorsport anniversary with a historic livery. The design draws on the colour scheme and styling of various successful Porsche race cars from the 1980s.<\/p>\n
These include the Porsche 959, which won the 1986 Paris\u2013Dakar Rally. For track racing, the Porsche 956 and Porsche 962 C achieved the greatest successes. The two white-and-blue Group C sports prototypes each claimed two overall victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in 1982 and 1983, and in 1986 and 1987 respectively.<\/p>\n

London holds special significance<\/p>\n
Porsche Motorsport has also celebrated major success at the ExCel Circuit. Porsche factory driver Wehrlein claimed the brand\u2019s only London victory to date in 2024 and secured his first FIA Formula E Drivers\u2019 World Championship that same weekend.<\/p>\n
Last year, the Porsche factory team won both the Teams\u2019 and Manufacturers\u2019 World Championships in London. In 2023, Dennis, racing for customer team Andretti, sealed the first drivers\u2019 title for Porsche as a brand at the same venue. The 2.077-kilometre temporary circuit is unique on the race calendar.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Located in the east of the British capital, it runs through the ExCeL exhibition centre and combines indoor and outdoor sections. The changing grip levels, particularly in wet conditions, make it one of the greatest driving challenges of the season.<\/p>\n
Racing for Charity<\/p>\n
On Sunday, the drivers will not only contest the final points and trophies of the season. Wehrlein and M\u00fcller will also complete their final laps for this year\u2019s \u201cRacing for Charity\u201d initiative. Through the fundraising campaign, Porsche combines sporting success in Formula E with social responsibility.<\/p>\n
For every race lap completed by its two factory-run Porsche 99X Electric, the Stuttgart-based sports car manufacturer donates 400 euros to support seriously ill children around the world. Porsche intends to announce the final donation total after the event.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The funds will benefit Kinderherzen retten e.V., Interplast Germany e.V. and the Ferry Porsche Foundation. Ahead of the final race weekend, the total stands at 390,000 euros.<\/p>\n

SCHEDULE: Where, when and how to watch or stream the 2026 Hankook London E-Prix, Rounds 16 & 17<\/p>\n
It all comes down to this. After a season of nail-biting drama, the fight for the 2025\/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship heads to London for a season-ending double-header on the world\u2019s only indoor\/outdoor circuit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With just two races remaining in the GEN3 era, nine drivers still in mathematical title contention, and the crown on the line, there\u2019s zero margin for error at the London Excel.<\/p>\n
