Nicholas Watts - As Darkness Beckons

Each print is hand signed by Dr Helmut Marko & Gijs Van Lennep

In a race of attrition, the Martini Racing Porsche 917 K driven by Gijs van Lennep and Dr Helmut Marko scored a deserved victory from the similar JW entered machine of Attwood and Muller. The lightweight "magnesium car" took the lead in the 13th hour and after crossing the finishing line for the final time it had covered a total distance of 3315 miles at an average speed of 138 mph, both Le Mans records. The scene depicts the winning car leading the third place Ferrari 512 M of Posey and Adamovicz and the Attwood and Muller Porsche as they negotiate Mulsanne Corner.
