The second prototype, an ex-works car that was driven by the likes of Phil Hill, Peter Collins, Mike Hawthorn, Olivier Gendebien, Maurice Trintignant, Masten Gregory, Wolfgang Seidel and Richie Ginther. With overall victories at the 12 hours of Sebring and Buenos Aires, plus a 2nd place finish at the Nürburgring 1000kms, a 4th place finish at the Targa Florio it was a two-time Le Mans 24 Hour entrant where it set the fastest lap in 1958 plus at least another 20 first place finishes in period. The car was donated to The Henry Ford museum in 1967 where it would reside for over 30 years and has most recently been owned by some of Europe’s most discerning collectors.

  • Porsche in Le Mans
    Press Information Meet the Heroes of Le Mans Mission 2014. Our Return. Porsche at Le Mans Meet the Heroes of Le Mans • Porsche and the 24 Hours of Le Mans 1 Porsche and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Porsche in the starting line-up for 63 years The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the most famous endurance race in the world. The post-war story of the 24 Heures du Mans begins in the year 1949. And already in 1951 – the pro - duction of the first sports cars in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen commenced in March the previous year – a small delegation from Porsche KG tackles the high-speed circuit 200 kilometres west of Paris in the Sarthe department. Class victory right at the outset for the 356 SL Aluminium Coupé marks the beginning of one of the most illustrious legends in motor racing: Porsche and Le Mans. Race cars from Porsche have contested Le Mans every year since 1951. The reward for this incredible stamina (Porsche is the only marque to have competed for 63 years without a break) is a raft of records, including 16 overall wins and 102 class victories to 2013. The sporting competition and success at the top echelon of racing in one of the world’s most famous arenas is as much a part of Porsche as the number combination 911. After a number of class wins in the early fifties with the 550, the first time on the podium in the overall classification came in 1958 with the 718 RSK clinching third place.

  • Le Rapt De Fangio À Cuba, Comme Le Raconta Maurice Trintignant
    Le rapt de Fangio à Cuba, comme le raconta Maurice Trintignant Par Michel Porcheron On est à « La Cave du Pétoulet », rue Emile-Jamais à Nîmes, un jour de mars 1958. Il y a là quelques clients fidèles, surtout des ménagères qui font leurs courses avant le repas de midi. Un fort mistral souffle ce matin-là, « La Cave du Pétoulet » est d’autant plus accueillante. « Pétoulet » c’est le surnom de Maurice Trintignant (1917-2005, Nîmes), coureur (ou pilote) automobile fameux, heureux vigneron, spécialisé plutôt dans le rosé, tiré de ses 45 hectares, au Mas d’Arnaud, entre Vergèze et Vauvert, dans la campagne gardoise. Depuis 1930 Maurice est l’oncle de Jean-Louis. Trintignant est rentré de La Havane où il a participé au 2E Grand Prix de Cuba (24 coureurs) le lundi 24 février, au volant de la Maserati de… Fangio, empêché. Et pour cause, le quintuple champion du monde de Formule 1, vainqueur du 1 er GP de Cuba l’année précédente, a été enlevé la veille, dimanche, par un groupe de rebelles cubains du Mouvement castriste du 26 Juillet. Fidel Castro, Raul, le Che, Camilo Cienfuegos et leurs hommes (combien ? peu) sont quelque part dans la Sierra Maestra. Fangio L’Argentin Juan Manuel Fangio (1911-1995) sera « retenu patriotiquement » quelque 26 heures. Si le compte est bon, le groupe était formé de quelque 26 hommes et femmes (7) ça ne s’invente pas. Ce matin de fin mars 1958, « Pétoulet » raconte pour l’assistance du jour. Le journaliste parisien Georges Pagnoud n’est pas là par hasard.
