The meteolorgical conditions were terrible to such an extend that the organizers had to reduce the average speed

[Porschinelle]

Out of the 317 starting cars, 54 were Porsches, but with the introduction of quite recent cars 356 are less and less competitives and of course their increasing prices prevent their owner to risk them on such icy and snowy roads but this year there was still 3 off 356
The majority of the Porsches was 911 classic and of course less expensives SC
A few 914 4 and 914 6 and also some 924

A 914 6 from Belgium was on the podium until the last minutes but lost all its chances in the last night under an heavy snow
The victory went to an Italian VW Golf GTI serie 1, followed by a French Opel Kadett and an Italo /Austrian DKW F12

And to conclude a small video showing how it could be difficult to drive a 911 on the icy snow
