Vacuum in fuel tank on 2001 Boxster S

My 2001 Boxster S racing car appears to have a problem in the fuel system, and I am not to sure where to start fixing this one. When ever I remove the fuel filler cap I can hear the tank sucking in air like mad, as if it has built up a really large vacuum.

I am assuming this is not how it should be and I must have a blockage in part of the breather system on the fuel tank or something. Anyone had this problem before and can point me at the most common things that it might be?
