The high-end eyewear brand Black Icon is now the official partner of the most successful racing team in the Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Germany: Proton Huber Competition. The cooperation combines the best of two worlds, uncompromising precision, outstanding technology and striking design, both on the race track and in everyday style.

Black Icon equips the entire team, including all riders, with exclusive sunglasses made from lightweight titanium. The models impress with their minimalist, masculine design, their enormous durability and highly functional, polarized and anti-reflective lenses – developed for the best vision under extreme conditions. Whether on the grid or in the team truck, Proton Huber Competition performs with style and focus.

A team on the way to its anniversary
Proton Huber Competition can look back on an impressive 2024 season: the racing team from Hofkirchen in Lower Bavaria dominated the Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Germany and won the drivers’, rookie and team classifications, a milestone in the history of the traditional one-make cup. Team boss Christoph Huber:

“The team championship was even more valuable to me personally than the drivers’ title – it shows the consistent, hard work that our entire team has put in.”

In 2025, the team is celebrating its tenth anniversary in the German Carrera Cup and is starting the season with a completely new, top-class driver line-up. Names such as Robert de Haan, Marvin Klein, Sacha Norden, Joseph Warhurst, Colin Jamie Bönighausen and guest drivers Daniel Ros and Wilmer Wallenstam represent the perfect combination of experience, talent and international potential.

With five permanently entered Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars and two additional cars at selected events (Imola & Zandvoort), Proton Huber Competition underlines its ambition to set new standards in 2025.

Style & performance – a shared DNA
The partnership with Black Icon also underlines the team’s high standards off the track. Both brands stand for uncompromising quality, technological progress and a flair for aesthetics. In an environment where every detail matters, Black Icon provides the perfect visual focus – stylish, functional, unique.

Christoph Huber: “Black Icon fits in perfectly with our philosophy – strong, precise, performance-oriented. Our drivers and the entire team are proud to wear these special sunglasses.”
