Photo Gallery «Porsche 956 or how the most successful racing car of all time was created»
Porsche has always built successful racing cars, but the Porsche 956 still stands out as a stroke of genius. The closed sports prototype and its evolutionary form 962 dominated the world's sports car races for over 10 years, as impressively documented by the victory of the enduring 962 at Le Mans in 1994. This report not only describes the history of the Porsche 956 (and 962), but also provides personal impressions of those involved, such as Jacky Ickx, Jochen Mass, Hans Joachim Stuck and Peter Reinisch, supplemented with historical footage, some of which has never been shown before.
