Porsche has an immense network of support and incentive. Porsche is constantly flying Bernard and Burgmeister around the world lending a hand to their top teams. Imagine racing with Freisinger, Racers Group, and Alex Job in the same year! Buckler won Daytona with his Porsche Cup "trophy."
Ferrari, to my knowledge does none of that. I don't beleive they give anyone any money or cars. They also don't have any of the previously mentioned teams.
The current Gt phonomenon seems to have been created by teams and enthusiasts, and kind built on itself. When this happened, it got Ferrari's attention. Now they will be building cars for both production classes, but, will it last? I think as long as they can sell cars, they will sell them on the track as well. More money to fund the F1 team, right? If they really cared that much about beating Porsche, they would have already.
