WIST U DAT? Deel 3: In de 24U van Le Mans 1957 kwam Storez duwend over de finish

Door Miguel Bosch12 juni 2015 · 17:34 uur1 min lezen

De 24-uursrace van Le Mans heeft een mythische status. Porsche heeft daar aan bijgedragen met vele overwinningen. Met de 83e editie van ‘Les 24 Heures’ voor de boeg is het tijd voor een korte en krachtige geschiedenisles: Deel 3 van bijzondere feiten over de zwaarste en meest meedogenloze race ter wereld.

In 1957 kwam Claude Storez met zijn 550 A Spyder na 23 uur zonder brandstof te staan. Hij twijfelde niet, klom uit de auto en duwde hem over de finish. Zo werd hij zevende. Totdat hij alsnog werd gediskwalificeerd.
