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. -

Quotes After the Audi Triumph at Le Mans
Communications Motorsport Jürgen Pippig Eva-Maria Veith Tel: +49 (0)841 89 34200 Tel: +49 (0)841 89 33922 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.audi-motorsport.info Quotes after the Audi triumph at Le Mans Ingolstadt/Le Mans, June 17, 2012 – With the first victory of a hybrid vehicle at the Le Mans 24 Hours, Audi – in front of 240,000 spectators – has again gone down in motorsport history. Quotes after Audi’s eleventh Le Mans triumph. Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich (Head of Audi Motorsport): “This is no doubt a historic victory for Audi. We were the first to win Le Mans with a direct-injection turbo gasoline engine and the first to be successful with a diesel engine. It’s a great result that Audi is now the first brand to have achieved victory with a hybrid vehicle – and right on the first run, as before with the two other technologies, and – what’s more – with both R18 e-tron quattro cars on the two top spots. That was an outstanding achievement by the entire squad, naturally with support from Audi’s Technical Development too, as we’re always working very closely together with the people who are developing our cars of tomorrow for the customers.” Ralf Jüttner (Technical Director Audi Sport Team Joest): “What a race! It was a hot battle right at the beginning, as Toyota was a much tougher rival than many had been expecting. It’s a shame that both of their cars retired so early, and Anthony Davidson’s vehicle with a heavy accident. -
02 Le Mans D
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. -
1971 Daytona 24 Hours – Battle of the Giants
www.porscheroadandrace.com A Sting in the Tale Published: 5th April 2019 By: Richard Wiley Online version: https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/a-sting-in-the-tale/ Le Mans 24 Hours, 31 May-1 June 1986: Start of the race – Porsches dominate the lead group In Part 1, Stories from Le Mans – with a Porsche flavour, our intrepid scribbler who hails from that beautiful part of South Africa, the Western Cape, shares with us some hilarious and revealing stories from his many trips to Le Mans. Richard Wiley, a lifelong motoring journalist, has always loved Le Mans, Group C and especially the Porsches of that era. A sting in the tale, covers his early trips to Le Mans in the late ‘80s. www.porscheroadandrace.com Le Mans 24 Hours, 12-13 June 1954: Leading the Porsche contingent on a media parade lap ahead of the 1954 Le Mans 24-Hour race is the #40 1498 cc Porsche 550 Spyder of Glockler/von Frankenburg followed by the similarly spec-ed #39 car of Johnny Claes/Pierre Stasse with the #41 car of Herrmann/Polensky just behind. At the rear is the #47 550 driven by Zora Arkus-Duntov/Gustave Olivier, the class-winning 1098 cc car For most of my three score years and ten, I lived – or should I say, survived – in Zimbabwe, an observation which may well invite the retort: “So what?” There are a number of appropriate responses I could provide, but three carry the most relevance. Firstly, as the son of a car-mad dental surgeon, I used to attend many motor races in the 1950s and 60s in the then Rhodesia. -

First Test of the Audi R8 Against Opposition Roll Outs at Nürburgring
27 April 1999 First test of the Audi R8 against opposition Next Sunday’s pre-qualifying for the Le Mans 24 Hours is the first major test for the Audi R8 against major opposition. Six weeks before the race, Audi Sport aims to qualify the four car line-up for the traditional race at La Sarthe in June. „The pre-qualifying is the first opportunity to test the car on the Le Mans track“, explains Audi‘s Head of Sport Dr Wolfgang Ullrich. „This is extremely meaningful for us since we are newcomers.“ Roll outs at Nürburgring and Silverstone Each car has a time limit of just six hours to pre-qualify on Sunday hence the preparations are meticulous. Dr Ullrich: „The cars have been stripped down and re-built completely after the recent tests.“ In order to be prepared perfectly, both teams will do a roll out to check every part before they go to Le Mans. Audi Sport Team Joest will shake down the two open- topped R8Rs at the Nürburgring while Audi Sport UK will test the enclosed R8C at Silverstone. Line-ups will be defined on Saturday night The teams will qualify on Sunday in two separate groups. Only after the final scrutineering on Saturday night will organisers define which cars will start on Sunday morning or Sunday afternoon. Both Audi Teams will attempt to pre-qualify on the 2 May. „Our goal is to get familiar with the track in the best possible way“, explains Dr Ullrich. During pre-qualifying, 10 of the 12 Audi drivers will be present. -
