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 BRITISH MOTORSPORT MARSHALS CLUB SAFER MOTOR SPORT MOTOR SPORTS ASSOCIATION RECOGNISED FOUNDED 1957 Issue 8 August. 2020 WELCOLME BACK B.T.C.C. ! NORTHERN IRELAND REGION MAGAZINE Issue No. 8 August 2020. Cover Story. Welcome back ! BTCC returns with no less than 12 races in August alone. Another bit of good news as 3 more Grand Prix are added to the calendar , two in Italy and a new Portuguese race at the Portameo circuit in the Algarve. Although the U.S. and Mexico have been ruled out as 2020 venues there is still a chance of other races in the far east this year. Watching races on TV is one thing but getting the old overalls on is a different matter and its thanks to the 500 Club that we attended our first race meeting in July. A lot of work behind the scenes was needed to make it happen so well done to all concerned ! If the Kirkistown race meeting was good then the following weeks Sprint was even more special ! An entry of over 100 cars many of them top class rally cars ( McKinstry Motorsport were running 5 WRC cars ) so rally fans missed a treat. Many of the Rally cars were penalised for all four wheels off but as one explained “ we are only out for the craic” A great days sport and thanks once again to all involved. Big news for bike fans is the new road racing circuit along the south coast of the Isle of Wight . Seen a video of the proposed 12.4 mile course and it does look spectacular ! it will host British Superbikes in 2021.
