Porsche: the birth of the myth.

Immortalised by Steve McQueen in his film Le Mans, the Porsche 917 has become one of the greatest icons of motor racing. But before that, the 917 was the culmination of Porsche's work at the highest level of competition. Thanks to this prototype, developed with the help of the greatest drivers of the time (Rodriguez, Siffert, Redman, Piper, etc.), Porsche could finally aim for overall victory in the 1970 Le Mans 24 Hours, and even win the endurance championship. The Ford GT40s, after 4 years of domination, are aging, the Matras are still too young. On the other hand, Ferrari, with its new 512 S and its talented drivers, is a scarecrow and will make it difficult for Porsche. But nothing can stop a legend from being written, especially at this speed! This new album of the "Plein Gaz" collection dedicated to the famous race in Manche comes back on a mythical period, certainly the most awaited by the fans!
