If your name is Porsche, you are the most winning manufacturer in endurance history, you have achieved thousands of records at Le Mans... so you can't risk your name letting a new comer in LMP1 class manage your cars as main team!

I think we will have to conclude that Porsche will run the team themselves then, picking up the best talent they can find. With Joest and Oreca taken there are not many options for outsourcing. A single-seater one make series could never prepare a team as preparation consists mostly of finding a good set-up, not developing a car as well as the general lack of experience in strategy. DAMS and ART would not be appropriate, and neither would Penske.
