€ 88,89
The Porsche 917K Martini #9 is one of the heroes of the grueling 1971 Brands Hatch 1000 km race. Driven by Gijs van Lennep and Gérard Larrousse, the car tackled the storm of water and mud that marked the race with a tactical and tenacious approach.
The start is already a challenge: wet ground, trajectories to be reinvented, and a struggle from the first lap to find grip. The #9 car adopts a cautious strategy, keeping the car in optimal condition for the long distance.
As the rain intensifies, the drivers' qualities come to the fore: van Lennep exploits his great sensitivity in wet conditions, while Larrousse handles the most critical moments with clarity and consistent pace.
In the final stages, when the track becomes a veritable torrent of water and debris, the #9 917K continues to grind out laps with astonishing efficiency. Its overall performance embodies Porsche's resilience in endurance racing: speed, engineering, and unwavering determination.
