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.

    1985: Il Sogno Diventa Realtà

    Riprende il nostro viaggio all’interno del Minardi Team e, in questo nuovo capitolo, affronteremo insieme il momento più importante, l’esordio nel Mondiale di Formula 1, al Gran Premio del Brasile sul tracciato di Rio nonostante i vari problemi legati ad un debutto così importante 1985: Il sogno diventa realtà Nel 1984 Gian Carlo Minardi era riuscito ad accumulare un grande bagaglio professionale come Team Manager e il suo Minardi Team aveva attirato grande attenzione su di se, nonostante i risultati ottenuti fino a quel momento non avessero ripagato pienamente gli sforzi. Da qualche anno ormai Gian Carlo Minardi pensava al grande salto di categoria, alla Formula 1, a quel mondo dove anche i più grandi e potenti personaggi erano andati in contro a numerose difficoltà per via degli elevati costi. Questo però non fermò Minardi che fissò per l’anno successivo il debutto nella massima serie, decidendo di andare avanti nonostante la mancanza di uno sponsor miliardario alle spalle che potesse finanziare la nascita della F1 romagnola: supporter che andavano trovati strada facendo, anche perché ormai il Minardi Team era composta da 22 persone, troppi per un F.2 ma pochi per l’avventura in F.1 e quindi bisognava trovare nuovi finanziatori, i quali erano però interessati solamente alla massima categoria. Foto1: Una fase della costruzione della scocca della “M 184 Alfa Romeo” – Foto tratta da: Minardi Team F1 di Stefano Pasini, Ed. C.E.L.I Sport 6 In vista del debutto Minardi decise quindi di andare a fare un’offerta all’Alfa Romeo per rilevare la sua scuderia di F.1 che non stava vivendo certamente un periodo particolarmente felice a causa degli scarsi risultati sportivi e degli elevati costi di gestione.

  • National Formula 1 Championships

    National Formula 1 Championships

    WORTH MENTIONING Formula 1 introduced itself in Asia and the Middle East long before the World Championship expanded to this part of the world, although it never came close to a formation of any national or regional series for Formula 1 cars. The Singapore Grand Prix for automobiles was first held in 1961 as Formula Libre race. It continued between 1962 and 1965 as Malaysian Grand Prix at the same Thomson Road circuit due to unification of the two countries, but after subsequent separation, it was Singapore Grand Prix again from 1966 until 1973. Despite Formula Libre designation, the machinery consisted primarily of small sports cars and Formula Junior single seaters, but in 1968 the race attracted attention of the Formula Tasman drivers from Australia and New Zealand, who dominated the subsequent events. Vern Schuppan won the last race in 1973 in Formula 2 March Hart, before it was cancelled due to extreme hazards of the racing circuit. Established in 1963, Japan NASCAR Corporation (JNC) intended to run NASCAR style races in Japan. Immediately, plans were made for a new 4.000 km banked oval near Tokyo. However, funds to complete the project run out and only one 30 degree banked corner was ever completed. JNC was forced to reorganize into Fuji Speedway Corporation, while Mitsubishi Estate Company acquired the management rights and finished the circuit as 6.070 km road course in December 1965. The banked Daiichi turn proved extremely dangerous because at the end of a straight the track went over a blind horizon down the banking, as opposed to normal configuration where the cars would speed into and up the banking.
