About JACKY? ICKX, if you have friends who know F 1 and Le Mans history, you must be familiar with him.
This legendary driver, in his racing career of more than 30 years, won the podium of F 1 for 25 times and the 24 Hours of Le Mans for 6 times. He is also known as the most fashionable long-distance racer.
Jackie. ICKX once said a classic sentence-"In? What about the facts? Mine? Maximum? Victory? Used to be. That? Me? Used to be. Alive /kloc-after 0/00000? Number of laps? Is it? Mine? Champion, "
In fact, my biggest victory is that I ran 654.38+ 10,000 laps on the track and I am still alive.
He summed up his brilliant, dangerous and cruel life in a simple sentence.
In the F 1 race, he experienced cruelty and danger, and passed the champion of F 1 many times, even in the F 1970 Spanish F 1 race, because of Jack of BRM team? Oliver drove through Jackie? The fuel tank of the ICKX car, the two were almost swallowed up by the fire.
However, in Le Mans racing, he experienced glory. 1969 drove the Ford GT40 and won the Le Mans championship that year. 1975- 1977 won three consecutive championships, 198 1 and 1982 won two consecutive championships.
It is worth mentioning that 1976, 1977, 198 1, 1982 won the championship four times, JACKY? ICKX works for Porsche, which explains why Porsche will launch a special edition model to commemorate this old man.
Back to this car, in order to reflect the concept of tribute, Porsche has spent some thought on the design.
For example, adopting a brand-new "X? Blue "dark blue car paint, is this Jacky? Ickx helmet color matching; For example, Jacky is printed on the B-pillar, the central armrest and even the car keys. Ickx's signature, such as "Belgian" on the doorframe pedal? Legend? The words "version".
The only drawback is that in terms of power, it is still equipped with a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine and an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox. The maximum power reaches 450 HP and the peak torque is 530 Nm, with little change.
So that some netizens think that Porsche is actually to improve brand value and circle money.
Personally, I think there are some things that Porsche wants to enhance its brand value. After all, what can best highlight the tonality of automobile brands is naturally historical culture and racing culture. But don't be sour here, because others have plenty of cultural background.
As for "circling money", I personally think it has not reached this point. After all, this car is only sold in Belgium, limited to 75 units, and it can't be bypassed anywhere in the circle.
Anyway, the envy of local tyrants in China is over.
