Porsche could return to Formula 1

Porsche is considering a return to Formula 1, not as a factory team but as an engine supplier. According to Lutz Meschke - Deputy Chairman at Porsche, the German company could return to the sport after new regulations are introduced in 2021.

Meschke reportedly met the Formula 1 management at the Italian Grand Prix. Reports also mention that some Porsche representatives have attended meetings to discuss the 2021 F1 engine regulations. Meschke went on to confirm that the German sports car brand has no intentions to enter as a factory team.

Porsche had recently announced their exit from the World Endurance Championship to enter the Formula E for the 2019 season. The brand has been away from Formula 1 since the end of the 1991 season. Soon, Porsche would join the likes of Mercedes-AMG, Ferrari, Renault and Honda as an engine supplier.
