📌 Notes

• Track length differences:
• Modern official Porsche laps use 20.832 km (since ~2019), with adjusted times sometimes published for consistency.
• Older tests sometimes used 20.6 km (“bridge-to-gantry” magazine runs).
• Weather: Porsche often gives ambient + track temp; when not listed I used general reports (e.g. “dry, ~20 °C”).
• Witnessing: TÜV Rheinland or independent notaries were present for high-profile runs since ~2013. Older times (Bellof, Carrera GT tests) relied on race timing or magazine stopwatches.
