It is impossible to know all the issues here, but I personally harbor no resentment about Weideking and Porsche's aggressive approach. He and the Porsche management took a huge--and for a while incredibly successful--risk. Seems to me that the unexpected world economic crisis sabotaged this strategy, not some decision to pull Porsche out of LeMans, etc.
Will Porsche be terminally damaged? I very seriously doubt it. Will
Weideking take the fall? Probably, but not because of his ineptitude. Big time corporate managers live by the sword, and die by the sword.
