Porsche junior Sven Muller popped up on the driver rankings today as silver.
If he follows the pathway we should see him get a few sportscar outings this year - probably as part of Am line-ups. Some drivers are on Twitter crying about driver rankings but I like how they allow young drivers a chance to get a foothold/reputation in the sport for a season. |

I'd like to know why. I don't really follow him much as a driver so can't comment on his performance behind the wheel. Seems like Porsche has plenty of factory drivers and he fell out of favor? |

Yes, this is puzzling.
I wonder if the reasons are not necessarily performance based. |

I don't know if he's still technically under Audi Sport contract or not, but it's obvious that Andre Lotterer going to Porsche's LMP1 program is probably the most recent worst kept secret in the WEC and sportscar racing.
