Hans Herrmann is one of the great racing drivers of the post-war era. "Survival means having luck," he once said in an interview. The boundary between driving genius and driving physics is very narrow, and the Grand Prix driver has crossed it more than once. His victory in 1970 at Le Mans was Porsche's first win on this track and also his greatest success. Hans Herrmann celebrated his eightieth birthday in February 2008. This is the perfect occasion to honor this master behind the wheel with a large-format retrospective. His biography outlines the key milestones in the life of the Swabian racing legend - the two decades as a driver as well as the successful period as the manager of his own company.
