PORSCHE RACING HISTORY1974 - Le Mans 24 Hours
16 June 1974 - Circuit de la Sarthe, Le Mans, France
Herbert Müller & Gijs van Lennep 2nd in a Porsche 911 Carrera RSR Turbo
Overall - 2nd ; S3.0 - 2nd ; GTS3.0 - 3rd In a fairly lacklustre race, the Matra of Henri Pescarolo and Gérard Larrousse led virtually from start to finish for their second successive victory. It was also the third in a row for Pescarolo and the Matra team. The race was enlivened on Sunday morning when the leading car was delayed for a long time by engine and gearbox troubles. But such was the lead they had built up that they were not headed. Second place, six laps back was the works-supported Martini Porsche 911 turbo of Gijs van Lennep and Herbert Müller while third went to the another Matra of Jean-Pierre Jabouille and François Migault. The Group 4 (GTS) category was a battle between Porsche and Ferrari. It was won by the French-privateer Ferrari of Cyril Grandet and Dominique Bardini as the leading Porsches fell out with problems.
