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.

  • It Was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, Who Designed and Developed the Interlagos Circuit, Which Opened Its Gates in 1940
    It was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, who designed and developed the Interlagos circuit, which opened its gates in 1940. The area was sparsely populated at the time, close to the two great water reservoirs of the city (hence the name, ‘between the lakes’) and the plans were quite ambitious including a hotel and a spa. Only the circuit was built but, of course, not in its present configuration. On May 12 1940, the track was inaugurated with 7.900 meters by then. With nearly 15,000 spectators watching, Arthur Nascimento Jr. won the race driving an Alfa Romeo. Our very beloved Chico Landi arrived in second place driving a Maserati. He kept racing at the circuit until his retirement in 1974. The first international race was held in 1947 and the winner, the Italian Achille Varzi also drove an Alfa Romeo, Chico Landi arrived in second place in his Maserati. Thirty-two years after the first race, on March 30, 1972, fifty thousand spectators saw Carlos Reutemann win the first modern Formula 1 race at the Interlagos circuit in Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham. In the next year, Brazil definitely joined the selected group of countries on the calendar of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Many people think that Interlagos made it possible for motorsport to develop in the country offering a world class circuit for the various new categories that needed a home. In 1980, the Brazilian Grand Prix moved to Rio de Janeiro seeking better conditions and there were rumors that Interlagos would be turned into a housing project.

To put the T3 in context, its T2 predecessor suered a very poor ending to the 1977 season, failing to get the necessary warmth into its cross ply Goodyear tyres. In fact, brand new Ferrari driver, Giles Villeneuve, recalled the T2 feeling ‘unbelievably bad’ as he slipped and slided his example around Mosport during the Canadian Grand Prix that year. Ferrari designer, Mauro Forghieri spent much of 1977 creating a brand new chassis design in which the at-12 engine would continue into its ninth year of competition. Given the problems with the Goodyears, the new chassis was conceived around the dened characteristics of the Michelin radials. Other notable dierences between the T2 and the T3 were the completely new front suspension design and notably dierent upper body aero, which – in stark contrast to the T2 – sported a square-cut, predominantly at body top and engine cover, maximizing the air ow both over and under the centre pillar rear wing. Although not ready to be debuted until the third round of the championship at Kyalami in South Africa on 4th March, the T3 showed promising form during pre testing for the race.

  • South African Motorsport - a Business Perspective of The
    SOUTH AFRICAN MOTORSPORT - A BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE OF THE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY BY: GARETH JOYCE (STUDENT NUMBER: 9704663) RESEARCH THESIS PRESENTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE. REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF COMMERCE IN BUSINESS MANAGEMENT IN THE FACULTY OF ECONOMIC AND MANAGEMENT SCIENCE OF THE RAND AFRIKAANS UNIVERSITY STUDY LEADER: PROF. S. KRUGER OCTOBER 1999 Key Value Drivers of Track Motorsport in South Africa OPSOMMING TITEL: "SOUTH AFRICAN MOTORSPORT - A BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE OF THE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY" rormule Een motorsport is vir bale entoesiaste die hoogtepunt van motorsport. Aan die anderkant kan die sport op verskillende vlakke verder ontgin word. Sover terug as 1968 het die ommekeer met betrekking tot borgskap in motorsport plaasgevind. Groot maatskappye het you tot die besef gekom dat motorsport hoe aansien geniet deur volledig dekking op televisie en deur die pers alhoewel geen borg aan die verloorkant beskikbaar is nie. Die gevolg was dat 'n groot hoeveelheid geld as borgskap aangebied is. Navorsing dwarsoor die wereld, asook in Suid Afrika, het aan die lig gebring dat motorsport 'n winsgewende bedryf geword het. In Suid Afrika geniet die sporfsoort een van die hoogs betaalde borgskappe alhoewel dit maar net tiende op die rangleer van populere sportsoorte in Suid Afrika is. Die doel van hierdie verhandeling is om die sleutelfigure in motorsport uit te lig en die ontwikkeling en die Ieemtes aan te vul deur op die behoeftes wat nodig is vir verdere ontwikkeling te konsentreer. Daardeur kan vooruitgang in die sport nie net in openbare belang wees nie, maar ook vir beleggers. Hierdie verhandeling dien slegs as 'n raamwerk vir verdere navorsing om die sleutelfigure van Motorsport in Suid Afrika te identifiseer met die doel om meer beleggers te lok.
