In 1971, Porsche put its 24 Hours of Le Mans title on the line.
Three cars are entered in the long “LH” version, including 2 from the John Wyer Engineering team in GULF colours.
#17 is piloted by Jo Siffert & Derek Bell. If at the end of the first hour he was second behind #18, he gave up 6 hours before the end when he was still in 6th position.
But there are 2 Porsche 917Ks that have just climbed the first 2 steps of the podium.
