About the Car：

The Porsche 956 is arguably the most significant prototype in modern motorsport history, effectively writing the rulebook for the Group C era. Chassis 956-114, campaigned by the legendary Porsche Kremer Racing team, arrived at the 1986 24 Hours of Le Mans adorned in the distinct colors of Primagaz. Piloted by the trio of Pierre Yver, Hubert Striebig, and Max Cohen-Olivar, the No.12 car faced a brutal grid increasingly populated by the newer, longer-wheelbase 962C prototypes.

Despite the age of the 956 platform by 1986, the privateer team demonstrated remarkable mechanical sympathy. The No.12 qualified respectably and fought through the chaotic early hours of the race. However, endurance racing at the Circuit de la Sarthe is notoriously unforgiving; a terminal engine failure forced the team to officially retire after completing 160 laps. Today, this specific Primagaz entry remains highly regarded by motorsport historians, representing the final, valiant stand of the original 956 generation on the ultimate endurance stage before yielding entirely to its successors.
