For many it was a glimpse of the interna- tional world of Formula 1 racing. Leading actor James Garner, already a racing enthusiast, immersed himself into the role of Pete Aron. Stints with the then still active F1 Bob Bondurant, and also Jim Russell, prepared him for many of his 'real on-track' scenes. One example was the Brands Hatch 'fireball', which left him bruised and with a cancelled insurancepolicy. Close to 40 years on, this film is still a great and historically significant racing movie.

    24 Heures du Mans Fan Guide 2006 „If you've never been at Le Mans, than you've never experienced a race!“ Tom Kristensen Update: 12.06.2006 22:00 Vorwort Bereits zum dritten Mal erstellen wir nun einen deutschsprachigen Le Mans Fan Guide. Wir möchten zuerst denjenigen danken, welche bereits 2004 unser Erstlingswerk gele- sen haben und uns motiviert haben auch 2005 einen Fan Guide zu gestalten. Die Tatsa- che, dass die 2005er Ausgabe noch weit mehr Leser erreichte als die 2004er Ausgabe ließ als Konsequenz nur zu: Auch 2006 wird es einen Fan Guide geben! Viele praktische Informationen am Ende des Fan Guide wurden für dieses Jahr überar- beitet und die Statistiken um das Rennergebnis 2005 erweitert. Wie schon in den Vor- jahren, gibt es auch in dieser Auflage wieder eine umfangreiche Starterliste sowie einen Blick in die Le Mans Historie. Hierfür haben wir uns den Vater der charmanten, ehemali- gen LMES Piloten Vanina Ickx, den sechsfachen Le Mans Sieger Jacky Ickx ausge- schaut. Die Zeit der LMP900 und LMP675 Fahrzeuge ist abgelaufen und mit dem AUDI R10 betritt erstmals ein werksseitig entwickelter LMP1 die Bühne von Le Mans. Und wir erleben erstmals den Einsatz eines konsequent vorbereiteten Diesel Motors - im AUDI R10. Le Mans 2006 also eine klare Sache? Dies bleibt abzuwarten. Vom Speed her scheinen die Pescarolo auf einer einzelnen Runde einen minimalen Vorteil zu haben. Ob dieser jedoch über die Distanz von 24h gehalten werden kann wird sich am 24. Wochenende des Jahres klären. Wir erleben aber auch eine LMP2 Kategorie die das laufen gelernt hat und sowohl an Qualität und Quanität zugelegt hat.

  • 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.

The day before yesterday 166 Notes 175 Images 191 Introduction and acknowledgements POLITICS AND SPORT are by definition incompatible, and they're combustible when mixed. The 1930s proved that: the Winter Olympics in Germany in 1936, when the President of the International Olympic Committee threatened to cancel the Games unless the anti-semitic posters were all taken down now, whatever Adolf Hitler decrees; the 1936 Summer Games in Berlin and Hitler's look of utter disgust when Jesse Owens, a negro, won the 100 metres; the World Heavyweight title fight in 1938 between Joe Louis, a negro, and Germany's Max Schmeling which carried racial undertones and overtones. The fight lasted 2 minutes 4 seconds, and in that time Louis knocked Schmeling down four times. They say that some of Schmeling's teeth were found embedded in Louis's glove... Motor racing, a dangerous but genteel activity in the 1920s and early 1930s, was touched by this, too, and touched hard. The combustible mixture produced two Grand Prix races at Donington Park, in 1937 and 1938, which were just as dramatic, just as sinister and just as full of foreboding. This is the full story of those races.

  • Audi Repeats Last Year's Sebring Victory Quotes After the Race
    Sebring, 18 March 2001 Audi repeats last year’s Sebring victory Audi had a successful dress rehersal for the 24 Hour Race at Le Mans: For the second time in a row Team Audi Sport North America took a 1-2 victory at the 12 Hours of Sebring (USA). Michele Alboreto, Laurent Aiello and Rinaldo Capello finished the race just 0.482s ahead of their team mates and last year’s winners Frank Biela, Tom Kristensen and Emanuele Pirro. The Audi customer teams of Champion and Johansson even made it the first 1-2-3-4 victory of Audi in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS) finishing 3rd and 4th. In front of a record crowd of 168,000 spectators, the two Infineon Audi R8s were setting the pace from the start on a track which is famous for being very demanding. The two customer R8s, however, stayed close making the pace among the leaders extremely fast. The two Infineon Audi R8s were fighting for victory for the whole twelve hour distance. Despite the enormous strain, the cars did not suffer from any severe difficulties. The Infineon Audi R8 #1 just had its front brake discs replaced shortly after half distance, the companion car had two pit stops because of a malfunction in the engine’s electrics. For the Audi crew the dress rehersal for Le Mans, however, is not completely over: On Monday and Tuesday the torture of another full 12- hour-distance is on the schedule for one of the two successful Infineon Audi R8s. Quotes after the race Laurent Aiello (#1): “It was a very tough race.

    Motorsport Ingolstadt, im November 2002 Hattrick: Audi schreibt Le Mans-Geschichte Mit drei aufeinander folgenden Siegen bei den 24 Stunden von Le Mans hat die AUDI AG einmal mehr bewiesen, dass der Firmenslogan „Vorsprung durch Technik“ wörtlich zu nehmen ist. Selten zuvor war ein Automobilhersteller beim wohl härtesten Autorennen der Welt so erfolgreich wie Audi. Dabei überzeugte der Audi Rennsportwagen vor allem durch seine hundertprozentige Zuverlässigkeit: Seit dem Debüt im Jahr 1999 brachte das Audi Sport Team Joest in Le Mans stets alle Fahrzeuge ins Ziel. Dreimal in Folge ließ Audi dabei die gesamte Konkurrenz hinter sich – eine einzigartige Bilanz. 1999 gelang dem Audi Sport Team Joest beim Debüt in Le Mans auf Anhieb der Sprung auf das Siegerpodest. Ein Jahr später trug sich Audi bei großer Hitze erstmals in die Siegerliste des Langstrecken-Klassikers ein – und das mit einem Traumergebnis: Die drei R8 belegten die ersten drei Plätze. In der Saison 2001 bewies die Audi Mannschaft, dass der Erfolg vom Vorjahr kein Zufall war: Bei extrem schwierigen Bedingungen mit phasenweise sintflutartigem Regen feierte Audi einen überlegenen Doppelsieg. Eine entscheidende Rolle spielte dabei die erstmals eingesetzte FSI Technologie. Das bessere Ansprechverhalten dank der Benzindirekteinspritzung war auf der regennassen Strecke ein großer Vorteil für die Audi Piloten. Beim Dreifachsieg im Jahr 2002 kam der geringere Benzinverbrauch der von Audi entwickelten FSI Technologie voll zum Tragen. Die 610 PS starken Infineon Audi R8 waren nicht nur die schnellsten Autos im Feld, sie sparten dank der FSI Motoren auch wertvolle Zeit, weil sie seltener zum Nachtanken an die Box mussten. Mit dem Hattrick hat die AUDI AG nicht nur ihre eigene Motorsport-Geschichte, sondern auch die Le Mans-Historie um ein erfolgreiches Kapitel erweitert.
