SPORTS RESULTS 

Porsche´s  917 sporting campaign was developed between 1969 and 1971 in the Sports category of the World Championship of Makes, and between 1971 and 1973 in the Can Am series. Its achievements were so spectacular, and its dominance so crushing, that the Federation International de´l Automobile (F.I.A.) modified the technical rulebook of the Sports category to impede the 917 to continue racing.

This Section will only comprehend Porsche 917´s participation in the World Championship of Makes (1969-1970-1971)
