During his first year of training, Holzer contested the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland.

In his second year as a Porsche Junior, the German contested the FIA GT Championship and again clinched victory at the last race with the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR.
“The last two years were, without doubt, the most educational in my entire motorsport career,” summarised Holzer. “Whether it’s racing with Porsche teams around the world, test drives or PR activities, I now know what it takes to be a complete racing professional. I’m very much looking forward to my third year with Porsche and I’m eager to learn as much as possible.”
