Porsche : la naissance du mythe.Immortalisée par Steve McQueen dans son film Le Mans, la Porsche 917 est devenue une des plus grandes icônes de la course automobile. Mais avant cela, la 917 est l’aboutissement du travail de Porsche au plus haut niveau de la compétition. Grace à ce prototype, mis au point avec l’aide des plus grands pilotes de l’époque (Rodriguez, Siffert, Redman, Piper, etc.), Porsche peut enfin viser la victoire au classement général des 24 Heures du Mans 1970, voire remporter le championnat d’endurance. Les Ford GT40, après 4 ans de domination, sont vieillissantes, les Matra, elles, sont encore trop jeunes. En revanche, Ferrari, avec ses nouvelles 512 S et ses pilotes de talent, font figure d’épouvantail et vont rendre la tâche difficile à Porsche. Mais rien n’arrête une légende qui s’écrit, surtout à cette vitesse ! Ce nouvel album de la collection "Plein Gaz" consacré à la célèbre course mancelle revient sur une période mythique, certainement la plus attendue par les fans !
