Parting Shot: December 2025 May 30, 1971 Nürburgring, West Germany
The start of the Nürburgring 1000Kms in ’71 is a snapshot of the difference in ’ealf and safety compared to today. Leading, just a flared-trouser flap away from a photographer, roars the Ferrari 312 PB of Jacky Ickx and Clay Regazzoni (DNF). The Porsche 908/03 in fourth would win, driven by Vic Elford and Gérard Larrousse.
