Giveaway Friday: Win The ILMC 2011 Yearbook!
Just as the count-down to the kick-off of the FIA World Endurance Championship speeds up – the first round at Sebring is only one week away – now is the time to have a quick look back at the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup, the forerunner of the new championship and make one of our readers happy by winning a fantastic collectors item!
With the official 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup Yearbook, relive the 2011 international endurance racing season!
It is written by Jean-Marc Teissedre, reporter at large of the weekly magazine Auto Hebo and author of the Le Mans-24 Hours Yearbook since its debut. It is published by Apach and tells the story of the thrilling 2011 ILMC. This sumptuously illustrated book filled with exciting texts looks back at the key moments of the season, which started with the unexpected victory of French privateer, Oreca, in the Sebring 12 Hours with their 2010 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP. It also covers the thrilling Le Mans 24 Hours won by Audi, and the domination of Ferrari and Peugeot in the manufacturers’ classifications. The magnificent spectacle of the cars on the Spa-Francorchamps roller-coaster is illustrated with exciting photos, and you can read all about the no-holds-barred battles between Peugeot and Audi in the prototype category. The GTs are not forgotten either and the scraps between Ferrari, Corvette and Porsche in GTE Pro as well as those in the LM P2 category and GTE Am are explained in detail. The official Yearbook gives you the full story of an exciting and indecisive season.
But the story of the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup is not the only one in the Yearbook as the 2011 Le Mans Series is the subject of a special 30-page chapter, which recounts the crowning of Rebellion Racing, Pescarolo’s renaissance with the drivers’ title shared by Emmanuel Collard and Julien Jousse and the stunning performance of the AF Corse Ferrari F458 Italias.
This bi-lingual book (French-English) contains 160 pages and can be won by you!

because I’m awsome and will porbably buy it anyway!!!!!
Because i like endurance racing and simracing
Because I’ll never drive a race car, so at least let me read the book!
because I dont have any book about racing in my library and I desire to fix that
why not??
ok then, i would like to see if they wrote about Aston Martins LMP1 car (r.i.p), then read it, get disgusted over how it happened, then happily read the rest
because waiting for the ultimate endurance friendly sim rFactor2 basically did in our beloved STC (Simracing Team Challenge) which was going to be the premier team oriented championship close to endurance racing. was …
as a consolation I really need to read that book.
Because I’m just now getting into racing (and sims) in my forties…and I need something manly to put on the coffee table to balance out the wife’s magazines. (Thanks)

160 pages of pure awesomeness
.
Thanks to everyone who put this Iconic book/giveaway together
good luck to all
I should win this book because because I have no possible way to follow this championship and also in where I live you just cannot get anything similar to this even if I really wanted to. In fact we do not have a regular(like a monthly edition) magazine for racing, because everybody is stuffed up with basketball
and doesn’t really care about anything else, let alone racing.
Everything that everyone else said times infinity for me is why I think it would be great if you gave it to me instead of them.
That and I would really REALLY like it, it would be a wonderful addition to the limited amount of memorabilia I have started collecting.
That and I would hug everyone who entered into the give-away since they weren’t the winners. Even people who don’t win deserve something. **hint hint, I’ve never won anything…**
Because I am the least deserving.
The book should be for me, as I always have wanted to start learning French from English and allready gave a RACE 07 copy away when I won it (the book I will keep for sure^^)
Endurance racing – Sports Car racing: Awesome
I just Love LeMans!
