Based in Switzerland, XRacing redefines motorsport with cutting-edge services and world-class training.

[events] The past weekend (20-21 September 2024), the Porsche Sports Cup Suisse took on the legendary Mugello Circuit (in Florence, Italy), a 5.245 km track packed with 15 turns, a long straight, and intense elevation changes. Tuscany is always worth a stop!

Nils Hansen (@nils_wscycleworks)’s days often begin at 5am with a bike ride, soaking in the beauty of Cape Town’s landscapes. “Cycling is like second nature to me; it’s the ultimate freedom.” Weekends for him are a blend of car tinkering, family time and gardening – a passion that he’s keen to develop further. “Exploring new places with my family brings me immense joy”, he says. “I’m at my happiest when I’m working on anything outdoors and being creative with my hands”.
Transitioning from his beloved Volkswagens to a Porsche 924, Nils found himself drawn to classic cars when others were chasing the latest models. He wanted something special, something to challenge him. The Porsche became a canvas for learning and creativity, a testament to his passion for restoration and repair.

If you ask a child to draw a car, it often resembles a G-Class. It’s a classic, a legend.
We had the incredible experience of shooting the 500,000th Mercedes-Benz G-Class alongside its iconic 1986 brother under the scorching Austrian sun. After our shoot, this milestone vehicle made its way to the Mercedes-Benz museum.
Mercedes-Benz says, “The G-Class has been writing its own success story since 1979. Now, number 500,000 of this off-road icon has left the production line in Graz, Austria. It’s a figure that at the same time underscores its exclusivity as it took more than four decades to reach this important milestone. The commemorative one-off takes us back to its roots – with vintage looks evocative of the 280 ge from one of the very first model years.”
Reitumetse Kholumo started her company, Kwela Brews, to help support South African women who practise the art of brewing traditional African beer.
[events] Capturing our first Porsche Sports Cup Suisse event at the stunning Red Bull Ring in Spielberg was an unforgettable experience! What a fantastic venue to kick off the season! (And yes, we’ll be covering the entire season!)
We quickly discovered that while the competition is fierce with highly driven teams, the atmosphere is like one big family. Everyone eats together, helps one another, and creates a welcoming environment perfect for fun and camaraderie.
With the next race just a few days away, we can’t wait to dive back in!

Desmond went to Kenya to document the ASICS Chojo training camp in Iten. Kenya immediately gave a warm welcome with so many friendly faces.
“Walking a few sets of stairs to my bedroom gasping for air I realised the altitude”, says Des. Iten sits 2400 meters high. That’s why the world of endurance athletes comes here to train. We had the honour of shooting Antonina Kwambai (Toronto marathon winner 2022), Mekdes Woldu (French half marathon record holder), John Korir (LA marathon winner 2022) and loads of other champions.
The seven days felt like two. So many new friends were made! Big thanks to ASICS and Hotseat Agency.
