Description
Maserati never lacked for originality, and their racing cars left no one indifferent. One of the marque’s “enfants terribles” left its mark on its era, but was far from being the most glorious. A monstrous pace, a terrifying noise, an unforgettable spectacle, that’s what the thundering Costin-Zagato Maserati 450S offered for a few hours at Le Mans 1957.
Under the expert pen of Michel Bollée, who has written several books on endurance racing, this book retraces the astonishing development of the car that was to become a legend, as well as all the details of its performance both on and off the track. Numerous documents accompany the narrative.
The English texts are enclosed in a separate booklet.
