The new McKlein calendars for 2016 are now available. As usual, the team specializing in World Rally Championships presents their best high quality photography showcasing the diversity and global impact of rallying as well as the dynamic skills of the world's greatest drivers.
On the trail of the crazy motorsport of the 50s-70s
A nutshell serves as a helmet, trees line the long straights at Le Mans and spectators stand so close to the track that their fingertips are almost caught by the "sharknose" of the Ferrari 156. As crazy as the motorsport of the 50s, 60s and 70s may seem in retrospect, the heroes of that time and their often uncontrollable experimental racing cars still inspire today.
Just think of the spectacular six-wheel Tyrrell or the brutal Porsche 917. The "Motorsport Classic 2016" calendar from McKlein, which is completely in black and white, captures 25 great moments from the heyday of motorsport in black and white. There are two motifs to choose from each month, covering the entire spectrum from Formula 1 to sports and touring cars to rallying. The wall calendar contains short descriptions of all these unforgettable snapshots, bringing you even closer to the spirit of the times.
The fascination of the World Rally Championship
Endless plumes of dust, splashing mud, swirling snow and, in the middle of it all, a World Rally Car being driven at the absolute limit: No other motorsport discipline is as diverse and spectacular as the World Rally Championship - and no one captures the fascination of this sport as well as McKlein.
For the breathtaking XXL calendar "McKlein Rally 2016 - The Wider View", the photographers have put together their 25 best and most extraordinary motifs to show all the beauty of the WRC. As usual, the official calendar for the FIA World Rally Championship offers two different motifs every month - in a 95 x 48 cm panoramic format! The drifting acrobatics of Sébastien Ogier, Thierry Neuville, Robert Kubica and Co. can only be seen live on a larger scale than in this wall calendar.
Past vs. present
A meeting of the generations in just a few centimeters: The 2016 Desktop Rally Calendar combines the most beautiful McKlein images of the past and present in a compact 11.5 x 13.5 cm format. The handy desk accessory offers a choice every two weeks between a motif from the sport's glorious history and a picture from the current World Rally Championship.
VW Polo WRC, Hyundai i20 WRC and Škoda Fabia R5 meet their ancestors and forefathers such as the Fiat 131 Abarth, Lancia Delta S4 or Ford Escort RS Cosworth. A successful mix of action, technology and atmospheric shots ensures variety from January to December.
