1967 - Weekend à Reims

The book
Gueux, Muizon, Thillois... Just hearing the names of these villages in Champagne is like Proust's madeleines for racing history buffs. In June 1967, the program was spectacular, featuring the final edition of the 12 Hours of Reims, the French F2 trophies, the F3 International Cup, and the Gordini Cup. Clark, Rindt, Stewart, Brabham, Beltoise, Surtees, Schlesser, Hulme, Siffert, and Ickx were all present for this prestigious weekend at the Reims circuit, one of the fastest in the world in terms of average Speed.

The collection
This book is part of a collection of books that relives unforgotten events of the motor racing history. Its purpose is to explore a particular weekend, the choice of which depends above all on the author’s ability to gather the most original and complete documentation possible: photos, plans, programs, drawings, period reports and testimonies. All the historical disciplines are likely to be approached: F1, F2, F3, FJ, FF, sport-prototypes, GT, touring, cups of mark, rally, etc. If the program includes other events of a different nature (motorcycling, cycling…), they are reported with the same concern of precision.
