The Porsche with starting number 26 leads the raging pack into the Dunlop curve at the 1998 endurance classic. The trio of Laurent Aïello, Allan McNish and Stéphane Ortelli will achieve a one-two for the German manufacturer, giving the German manufacturer a record-breaking 16th place and into 2015 for the time being last Le Mans overall victory, although in terms of performance they were also inferior to their competitors in the race. In the background of the picture you can see the second factory/Joest Porsche GT1, the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTLM, the Toyota GT-One and the long-tail version of the McLaren GTR, which finished fourth.
