Porsche's remarkable 919 Hybrid Evo was officially retired from active duty, and the honour of driving the record-breaking machine to its final destination was bestowed upon Mark Webber.
The 2015 WEC champion and former F1 driver drove from the car from Porsche's R&D centre in Weissach to the manufacturer's historic museum in Stuttgart on Thursday morning.
Webber was followed by Porsche works driver Mark Lied behind the wheel of an LMP1-spec 919 Hybrid.
"It was kind of crazy but fun to handle the beast in public traffic in Germany - it’s typical of Porsche to try to manage something cool like this," said Webber.
"The 919 and the years in the WEC mean a lot to me. It was an honour to bring the 919 Evo home now."
