40 years of BMW M1 | Jochen Neerpasch BMW Motorsport Director 1972-1980.

Описание: Jochen Neerpasch has been a pilot for Volvo, Ford and Porsche, he has competed at Le Mans, Daytona and Nürburgring, and he had a definite contribution in the development and growth of Michael Schumacher, yet his name remains forever linked to the performances recorded by BMW since 1972, when he laid the foundations for BMW Motorsport GmbH.

To hand over the keys of a BMW M1 to Jochen Neerpasch seems like an unfair gesture, an undeserved generosity, even an arrogance, just like allowing a responsible and loving parent to play with his own children. Fortunately, he does not share this perspective, since he accepts the keys with an enthusiastic sparkle in his eyes and he immediately gets behind the steering wheel. The engine comes to life with an abrupt bark, and the car moves away on the narrow road that soon twitches into some tight bends. The brake lights don’t light up, although the tempo is quite brisk, proof that the reflexes of the 78-year old pilot are still intact. The steering and the throttle are enough to handle properly the red BMW.
