What’s in an identity? Porsche helps us find out with this video insight into the 919 Hybrid.
The Porsche and Le Mans-istas amongst you, we assume, are champing at the bit to see the new 919 Hybrid take to the track for its first official race in the World Endurance Championship before its much-hyped assault at La Sarthe in July.
