- The 1980s was a golden era for Porsche’s racing teams - and not least for the cars and drivers competing at Le Mans. The 962C was based on the four-time Le Mans-winning 956 but 120mm longer and built around an incredibly light aluminium monocoque frame. With the legendary driver combo of Hans-Joachim Stuck, Derek Bell and Al Holbert at the wheel, the Porsche 962C took overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1986 and 1987.
In the Porsche Moments series, Timo Bernhard tells the stories of the people who helped secure the Porsche legend at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Here he meets the great Porsche engineer, Norbert Singer, and Hans-Joachim Stuck, one of the famed drivers who piloted the 962C to Le Mans glory.

Thank you guys.
And the biggest respect to Mr Stefan Bellof. Not forgotten, always the fastest.
Hans Joachim Stuck the Motorsports legend.
The greatest race car of all time. Thank you Mr. Singer!
who ever edited this deserves a raise, absolutely sick
Lovely to see the good spirit between these three.
Grown men giggling like kids! One of the coolest things about cars!
Thank You So Much to Everybody for bringing back PORSCHE Chief Race Engineer Norbert Singer & the very much loved Hans Stuck to relive back the Good Old Times of the World Sportscar Championship seasons of the 1985 to 1987!
Amazing movie and just great to see how natural and non-scripted these conversations flow between people who have the same passion and know a lot
One of the most beautiful race cars ever made.
Vier grosse Motorsport Legenden - vor allem wenn man sie Erleben durfte ... Danke Porsche !!!
Der Striezel, Timo Bernhard und Norbert Singer....besser gehts nimmer😉 Ich liebe den 962 C. Danke für dieses Video❤
One of the most legendary racing car ever❤️
Awesome video. Great to meet Stuck and Singer, and also of course Timo. I have been a Porsche fan since 1970 when Porsche won LeMans with the 917. Now I'm old, but the lucky owner of two classic Porsches. I was thrilled when Porsche returned to LMP1, and equally disappointed when they left again.
You must be looking forward to 2023, the 100th running of Le Mans. Porsche, Ferrari, Audi, Peugeot, BMW, Toyota, Glickenhaus all confirmed as factory teams seeking outright victory. Absolutely unprecedented event.
I was born in 1970. Working for that Company now for 21 years. Driving 911s now for 20 years, Me and my whole Familie love that Cars And the spirit behind IT
@@ragereset2795 Actually that's incorrect. 2023 will be the 91st running, not the 100th.
@@arjun._.bbC6 It’s the 100th anniversary, not running. My bad.
@@ragereset2795 yeah that still confused me. It's only the 91st running but they are celebrating their 100th anniversary.
Really enjoying this format - great for true Porsche fans
Drei extrem sympathische Typen, macht Spaß Ihnen zuzuhören. Wunderbar!
My first Le Mans was in 1984, going out this Thursday for 11 days, my 35 th visit, the LM pilgrimage is the highlight of my year.
6 963s this year, 3 factory and 3 private cars .
There's nothing like a 956!😍
Really an awesome documentary. Thanks for sharing. Great these legends are still alive. Main actors in the greatest shows on earth.
For me the best car, when I was a child this car is the best Porsche👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This whole Le Mans series is so good!
the best race car ever....
962C....THE LEGEND .
Awesome series. Really like this long form series. Amazing cars. Looking forward to the next episode. Keep up the good work.
Whoever edited this with subtitles is a genius! Thank you!!! I enjoyed every single second of each of the episodes of this series! I can't describe how happy I am! Hallo, Norbert!!!
Thank you Porsche for this amazing video, I’d love to be able to say it in German, but my German is still lacking somewhat!🤦🏼♂️
Personally I think the Germans and the British have a lot in common, sense of humour and love for perfection being just 2, well ok beer also!👍🏻🤣
I can’t wait to come back to Stuttgart as soon as possible as in all honesty bringing my car back to where it was made with my dad after a weekend at Spa, was in all honesty the most amazing long weekend of my life and I thrill the memories made will always hold it that high for myself and dad!
Keep doing what you do, and stay true to the company roots and the founders beliefs, it is essential! 🍺🍻🍺
Well said 👏 I love porsche and the German people. Can't wait for my next factory visit and nurburgring trip.
Legendary Team
This car is the perfect representation of "signature look of superiority"
This is good. Please keep doing this.
These series are AMAZING!!!!!
Yes Yes Yes Yes Eso Es Pasión mi Porsche ❤️👍👍👉👉💪💪
I really love that kind of videos!
BTW, I think that talking about the 956/962 with the PDK could be very interesting!
Gott sei Dank habe ich die Zeiten live erlebt. DAS war noch Motorsport. Da sind die heutigen Rennen mit den wie Rasierapperate klingenden Seifenkisten durch die Städte nur noch lachhaft...
Der Striezl is einfach eine Sympathie Bombe
So eine coole Kiste! Wäre es für Porsche nicht möglich, das 88er Heck gegen ein originales aus 86 & 87 zu tauschen? Die 86 & 87er 962, gerade auch noch mit Rothmans Lackierung, waren die schönsten ever.... Bitte macht weiter mit dem hochwertigen Inhalt...!
When I think about Porsche at Le Mans I see the 956/962 in front of me.
Starke Aussage vom Striezel "dank Stefan Bellof" 💪..... schade das uns Stefan nicht noch mehr zeigen durfte 🙏
The 956 and 962 are amazing cars. Even in 1994 a Jochen Dauer Porsche 962 won the 24h in Le Mans. The second car finished 3rd. Group C cars were already banned at this time and only GT1 cars were allowed in the top class, but Jochen Dauer, who bought a few 962 at the beginning of the 90's, build a street legal version, like the GT1 cars, of one of the 962 and was back in the game. The street legal car was testet at the VW proofing ground in Ehra Lessien. The top speed was 404 km/h. It was the fastest street legal car at that time. Far before a Bugatti Veron.
Wie geil ist das denn. Für mich mit dem Sauber Mercedes der schönste Rennwagen aller Zeiten.
Interesting discussion about some differences between the Langheck & Kurzheck. I prefer the look of the high downforce sprint race short tail. Norbert had quite the career at Porsche
Very good documentary about racing.
Great Video, but now I have the sudden urge to Smoke
Makes me want to smoke a Rothmans Blue
Legende 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Beste Grüße 🏁🏁🏁
Ach Stucky ... Whenever you ask him whats the best car you ever had driven - its always the car where the focus of the reportage is.
Stucki :) What a video.
super sympatisch die 3...
Großartig! Ich hatte tatsächlich die Möglichkeit dieses Wunderschöne Auto noch auf dem Werksgelände in Flacht in der Oldtimerwerkstatt (neben den Reifen Stapeln) zu begutachten 😁 Aber wo kommen die Autos danach eigentlich hin? Bleiben die in Flach/ Weissach oder gehen die dann wieder zurück nach Zuffenhausen ins Museum? Und wo habt "ihr" eigentlichen euren Sitz? In Zuffenhausen? Oder ist die "Mediengruppe" extern?
I❤Porsche
Thank you Porsche
But you have not covered the 60s and particularly the 908. A truly great and long racing car
I'd love to see that too. It was a car that did everything. Started out as a challenger to the GT40 then became a short wheelbase Go Kart for circuits like the Nordschleife and Madonie where the 917 would be a much bigger hand full. Almost completely forgotten because of the 917. Great car.
The best Porsche. They tried to ban it and it still won. 🤣
Yo is this a short tail or its a long tail?
Es fehlt nur noch Walti Brun....the Living Legend.
What a great video! Does anyone recognize Norbert's watch?
Der GT1 im Hintergrund 😍
Cool historic car.
nice video
Good 👍
interesting ❤️❤️❤️
22:16 No one got the 9 months joke ;)
Interesting video. Anorak question: Porsche adopted monocoque structures for its sports prototypes with this car in 1984...and yet this chassis methology was introduced in 1962 (Lotus 25). Why so late?
Because Formula 1 always tends to be ahead of the curve in terms of technology. Same with ground effect. It had been used in F1 for years before it was used in Group C.
@@Extra-dg7uv The question is why were Porsche so late to the party...the Eric Broadley designed Ford GT copied Colin Chapman's innovation...
@@Andrew-vx2ls if you look back Porsche's racing achievements didn't really get going till the 1970's. The rulings of most of the championships they were entering gave preference to the tubular chassis design. Lightness was the winning factor in those early times.
@@jameswilkinson2242 Agreed that until the end of the 60s, others were doing the same or in a hybrid format. However, it really was old school by 1970. To be balanced, Lotus carried on with the torsion box road chassis for too long as well! The first real update was with the Elise ;-)
@@Andrew-vx2ls the designs for these types of chassis like you mentioned with the lola Gt was the weight, the early attempts at it were too heavy. I think they even mention it in the film le mans 66. The elise was definitely a game changer look at all the supercar manufacturers that took that concept 👍
Groundeffect-Auto kannst entspannt 350 fahren.
Norbert's carrying an extra large fuel tank these days.
