You didn't need to be a prophet to predict the winner of the 1971 24 Hours of Le Mans based on the practice results. The fastest Ferrari 512 M was already five seconds ahead of the Porsche 917, driven by Rodriguez. And the latter was even convinced that it could have been two seconds faster. At 17 laps per hour, this already meant a gap of more than a minute, after four hours one lap.
