Leonard Turner Porsche Photography

In very early 2007, we had the great good fortune to be invited to Weissach — famous for its R and D, but also where racing Porsches were actually made — to see the newly transformed facility, double the size of the previous one. Those were the days of the RS Spyder; 001 was on the test track that day, 005 was almost completed, and work was …

Derek Bell Repairing a Porsche 917 at Watkins Glenn

1971 was a sort of a watershed year for me; I had become involved with shooting for Panorama, and had done the events at Daytona and Sebring. I hadn’t ever been to Watkins Glen, but a good friend was to race his 911 L (on the same track with 917s!). Three of us flew up in a Cessna with another friend and I shot the race, though there was never a …

Porsche GT1 in the pits at Le Mans by Leonard Turner

Brought into existence under the watchful eye of the legendary engineer Norbert Singer in less than a year’s time, the Porsche GT1 made its debut at the all—important 24 hour struggle at Le Mans. Pitted against Ferrari F 40s, Nismo Nissans GT-Rs, and---count them---seven of the 6.0 liter McLaren F1 GTRs dominant the previous year, they had a …

Leonard Turner - The Last Turn - Porsche 993s lined up during their intro to the press in 1993

This group of brand-new 993s was sitting on some really expensive turf. Cap Ferrat, between Nice and Monaco, was the French site selected for the press introduction of the last air-cooled Porsche in 1993. Car manufacturers in general like for those doing the story on their latest models to be located in nice digs, well fed and happy. The thought …

In the glory days of the 917, one of my favorites was Jo Siffert. An accomplished F1 driver, he found the big sports cars a good fit as well, and slipped easily back and forth during the season. Having piloted a 906 at Sebring in 1966, he had been in a 910 in 1967 , and won that race outright in a 907 with Hans Hermann in 1968. A 908 he shared with …
