McLaren's fatal crash

On 2 June 1970, at Goodwood, McLaren was conducting routine testing in Hulme's intended race car when a tail securing pin went missing. Wind pressure ripped away the rear bodywork and wing and, devoid of its downforce, the M8D slid broadside into a marshal's post at well over 100 mph (161 kph). Bruce McLaren, just short of his 33rd birthday, was killed

The showdown with mighty Porsche

Then came the news that Porsche would mount an all-out challenge for the 1972 Can-Am, and would have its efforts managed by the highly professional Roger Penske for another skilled driver/engineer, Mark Donohue. At last, after so many years of fighting paper tigers, the showdown had arrived. The Can-Am town would ultimately prove big enough for only one of them.

Coppuck's response was an all-new McLaren, the attractive M20...................

The M20s could often match the fast Porsches' practice pace, but come the race reliability lay with the German cars..............

Tried my hand at creating a composite photo with mark-up.
