Porsche Engineer RIP

Sad day for the people at Porsche as one of their own dies whilst testing next gen 911.

The unidentified 51-year-old, who was a 25 year veteran test-driver for Porsche Automobiles, passed away in a horrific accident on the A5 Autobahn between Frankfurt and Heidelberg at around 2:45am. The accident is still unknown, however there was most likely a high-rate of speed attained by the driver. The stretch of road where the accident occurred has no speed limit.

Our hearts and condolences go out to his family and loved ones.
