JP Rathgen hat dies geteiltWhat a fantastic initiative by Mast-Jägermeister SE. Together with Classic Driver in-house creative agency CD Works we celebrated a real Pirate Radio party at Duke of London!JP Rathgen hat dies geteiltRennmeister Pirate Radio time-warped us back to 1990s warehouse raves and DTM races. Last Thursday, project #Rennmeister took London’s contemporary car scene on a trip back in time to the 1990s – the golden age of pumping beats, warehouse raves, pirate radio stations and full-on DTM races. As the third Rennmeister season closer, we brought our vision of #racecarsafterdark to life once again. Iconic historical Jägermeister Race cars of our collection from Porsche AG, AlfaRomeoMEA, BMW Group and Opel met an enthusiastic crowd and ice-cold Jägermeister and Jägermeister Manifest drinks. And it wasn’t just a vernissage, it was a real rave. Spectacular films by James Martin, aesthetic graphics by Sophie Küppers and cool beats by DJ LUCK AND MC NEAT rounded off the mood. Thank you for the great location and the professional execution, Duke of London, for the creative concept, CD Works, for the excellent drinks, Jägermeister UK and for your enormous support, Classic Car Service Fahrzeutransporte GmbH. And the biggest thanks to the fabulous team on-site: Florian Carl Eisenblätter, Sonja Wilkens, Jan Röhmeyer, Blazej Zulawski, Wojciech Pachulski, Szymon Adamczyk, JP Rathgen, Jan Baedeker, Elliot Newton, Florian Beuren, Merlin McCormack, Luke Whittaker, Tatiana Rodkina. About the project: #Rennmeister is shining a whole new light on the iconic Jägermeister race machines and the culture that surrounds them and draws the bow from the roots of the Jägermeister Racing Team to the lifestyle of the best nights of life in the here and now. 🎬 @szymon Adamczyk #brandhistory #orangecarsdrivefaster #bestnightsfortodayandtomorrow

JP Rathgen hat dies repostetJP Rathgen hat dies repostetFabrizio Giugiaro is the guest on the latest episode of “Classic Heart,” the BMW Group Classic podcast in which moderator JP Rathgen talks with illustrious guests about the fascinating world of classic vehicles and the lifestyle that goes with it. The podcast focuses on favourite vehicles and collections, and features background on the most exciting classic events, insights into dream jobs, amazing stories, genuine legends. In the long and enjoyable chat, Fabrizio deepens the story behind the birth of the BMW Nazca M12, the first project for which he was personally responsible, and the links with the BMW M1 designed by his father Giorgetto. But this is only the starting point: in the course of the conversation, topics such as design philosophy are addressed and amusing anecdotes emerge in which car design is intertwined with everyday life. https://lnkd.in/dy5_M6ag #cardesign #stylecenter #designcenter #podcast #bmwgroupclassic

JP Rathgen hat dies repostetJP Rathgen hat dies repostetWie ehrt man einen der grössten Schweizer Sportler, die es jemals gab? Der unvergessene Jo Siffert, dessen Sieg von 1969 im Porsche 917 auch nach 55 Jahren im kollektiven Gedächtnis verankert ist, gehört zu den Legenden des Schweizer Motorsports – und der Welt von Porsche. Mit dem 911 GT3 RS Tribute to Jo Siffert präsentiert Porsche nun ein absolutes Unikat, eine Hommage an den charismatischen Rennfahrer, der früh zu einer Kultfigur wurde. Die Expertinnen und Experten der Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur haben damit ein Einzelstück geschaffen, dessen Exterieur und Interieur stark an das Design jenes legendären 917 angelehnt sind. Gleichzeitig zeigt das Fahrzeug die Möglichkeiten der Individualisierung, die Porsche seinen Kundinnen und Kunden bietet. Die Farbgebung des Fahrzeugs – Purweiss und Vipergrün – entspricht dem Original, ebenso die Startnummer 29. Auch der klassische Porsche-Schriftzug mit Streifen-Design auf den Türen und Seitenteilen ist vom Original-Fahrzeug inspiriert. Gemeinsam mit Bosch und Shell hat Porsche sogar die zeitgenössischen Sponsorenaufkleber reproduziert. Hinzu kommen zahlreiche Details wie Silhouetten des 917KH, Name und Signatur von Jo Siffert oder ein eigens gestalteter Fahrzeugschlüssel. Besonders stolz ist Porsche darauf, dass auch der Sohn und der Enkel von Jo Siffert, Philippe Siffert und Jérémy, an der Konzeption des einmaligen Autos beteiligt waren. „Jo Siffert hat zusammen mit Kurt Ahrens durch den Sieg bei Zeltweg 1969 die Erfolgsgeschichte des 917 eingeläutet“, sagt Michael Glinski, CEO der Porsche Schweiz AG. „Die Leidenschaft, mit der er seinen Traum vom Rennfahren verwirklicht hat, ist nach wie vor beeindruckend und passt hervorragend zu unserem Markenkern – Driven by Dreams.“ Der einmalige 911 GT3 RS Tribute to Jo Siffert ist ab August in den Schweizer Porsche Zentren zu sehen, aber richtig spannend wird es auf der „Auto Zürich“ im November: Unter allen Interessierten wird die Käuferin oder der Käufer des Einzelstücks per Los ermittelt. Erfahren Sie alles über den Tribute-911 in unserem Newsroom!

JP Rathgen hat dies repostetJP Rathgen hat dies repostetToday, the 29th of July, marks what would be the 100th birthday of our company founder, Walter Lange. I had the great honour of experiencing the last seven years of his life, and from all what he has achieved for Glashütte and the world of watchmaking, one thing impresses me above all: his humanistic nature can still be found at the very heart of our corporate culture. That really is a true achievement! One of Walter Lange's main concerns was the future of the watchmaking profession. Under his guidance, the company began training apprentices again in 1997, and these young watchmakers were particularly close to his heart. It would certainly have been a great pleasure for him to personally welcome the 20 young people who are starting their training with us this year. The best way to honour Walter Lange and his life's achievements is to keep his memory alive. While he was the heart, Günter Blümlein was the brain behind A. Lange & Söhne. We must thank both of them for the solid foundation of our Maison.

JP Rathgen hat dies geteiltStefan created with Curvistan a fantastic new concept of a brand store created by a brand enthusiast. Ofcourse Porsche supported the idea, yet it is a good practice how brands should get more involved in non corporate brand related activations. Cannot wait to see first photos of Curvistan BKKJP Rathgen hat dies geteiltAfter the successful Curvistan pop-up stores in Munich and Singapore, we will be opening another Curvistan shop in Bangkok at the end of August, which will remain open until the end of 2025. "Curvistan" is a pop-up store, gallery, café, event space and hangout. The exhibitions, which change every two months, will focus on themes such as design, the future, art, community, and unique vehicles centered around the Porsche brand. A big thank you to our supporters: Porsche AG, Vitra, and NORSE Republics. Stay tuned for news about location and opening party …. Illustration by Jeffrey Docherty

JP Rathgen hat dies geteiltIan will be dearly missed as a dear friend and fellow car enthusiast. His kindness, knowledge, and humor made him a wonderful human being. Ian's unique ability to share design knowledge with great patience made him a very good designer. His wise words about coping with future challenges, recorded in 2010, reflect his calm, sharp, and empathetic mindset. I will miss our long conversations about so many different topics dearly. Godspeed my fellow astronaut. My thoughts are with Verena and Rob.

Es zeigt aber auch: Wettbewerb kann auf Augenhöhe stattfinden. Ein schöner Gegensatz zu den vielen Schlammschlachten, die gefühlt immer häufiger stattfinden. ❤️

JP Rathgen gefällt dasJP Rathgen gefällt dasAnd just like that.. after 12 unforgettable years, today was my last day at Porsche AG. This is more than leaving a job - it’s closing a chapter that shaped me in every possible way. For the past six years, I didn’t work for Porsche - I lived for Type 7. I lived for an idea, for a mindset, for something I truly believe in. What started as a wild idea became a globally recognized brand. But more than that, it became home: a home for creativity, stories, culture, and a community I’ll never stop believing in. Here’s to closing this chapter with a full heart. …And sooo excited to open the next one! ❤️ They call me the „proud mom of Type 7“ and I guess it’s true: Once a mom, always a mom! #type7 #porsche #dream #speed #byebye

JP Rathgen gefällt dasJP Rathgen gefällt dasThere is going to be a lot more to say about this watch in the future, but the first post I want to make about the new TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph is a celebration. Thirty-nine years ago the company became TAG Heuer, with the acquisition of a storied watchmaker by a celebrated conglomerate that also owned the McLaren F1 team. The debut collection to wear this new name and logo would be the gateway for make to the Swiss watchmaking universe, something to be incredibly proud of. Combining the red of Switzerland and the green of Saudi Arabia, the new logo would become indelibly linked to motorsport and the now iconic brand, thanks to visionary marketing and sponsorship. There was a model launched in 1986 that paid homage to the union, and one of the references launched this year honours this great history, with its green bezel and strap complementing a red case. To be able to be inspired by the past while creating something completely new is one of the great strengths of TAG Heuer today.
