In the early 1970s, the landscape of endurance racing underwent a dramatic change with the introduction of the captivating and unforgettable Sport-Prototipo cars, which boasted nearly 5 liters of engine capacity, with the Porsche 917 and Ferrari 512 S and M leading the charge.
In the years that followed, the World Championship for Makes experienced its ups and downs, navigating through a myriad of regulatory changes; however, thanks largely to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, it managed to preserve its essence, continually reinventing itself up to the present day.
Guiding the reader through this intricate and fascinating world of motorsport is Massimo Campi, who takes us from the prototypes of the early 1970s, through the Silhouettes, Group C, WSC sports cars, and the Le Mans Series, all the way to the era of the WEC and the current hypercars, which have seen the grand return of Ferrari, competing against other manufacturers like Toyota and Porsche.
The book Le sport-prototipo - Dal Mondiale Marche al WEC spans 194 pages and features an extremely rich iconographic repertoire, characterized by valuable archival images and photographs taken specifically for this publication.
