Historical Context
The 1983 race was all about the dominance of the Porsche 956. The German brand occupied 9 of the top 10 positions in the final result at the time. This particular chassis (956-106) was also very successful in the World Endurance Championship and later took the pole position at Mugello and victories in shorter sprint races. Due to the striking Canon sponsorship and legendary status of Jan Lammers and Jonathan Palmer, this particular #14 car is today a very popular object for scale model builders (such as Solido, Minichamps and Spark)
