Pictures

61 cars (or thereabout) took the Le Mans start at the spectacular track behind de Iron Curtain. For three hours, one or more Porsches led in front of the BMW’s. Pit stops and accidents meant that the race was never dull.
The leading Porsche (Kelleners/Neuhaus) retired at once so now Hahne was in the lead for BMW, but he soon got a puncture - and in the end it was another Porsche victory for Kremer and Kelleners.
