Porsche 917: 917-023 - eine Auto-Biographie

Since its founding in 1948, Porsche has strived to be the top sports car manufacturer. Ultimately, this was only achieved through victories in racing, particularly in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which was dominated by Ferrari and Ford in the 1960s. When a rule change allowed small series of racing cars, Porsche development chief Ferdinand Piech took a big risk with the Porsche 917. This car gave Porsche the long-awaited breakthrough to the top of the sports car manufacturers.

On June 14 1970, a Porsche 917 won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the first time. Long-distance specialist Hans Herrmann drove the Porsche 917 short-tail with car number 23 over 4 607.81 kilometers to victory.

This triumph marked a turning point for Porsche and made the Porsche 917 the most glorious Porsche of all time. The opulent illustrated book by Ian Wagstaff presents a comprehensive collection of data, facts and anecdotes about the Porsche 917-023 and is also the book about the most exciting era in motorsport.
Wagstaff is a renowned motor journalist and motorsport expert with decades of experience.
