dsl ◊ 2015-02-24 22:38	#12 Sobieslav Zasada/Marien Bien, finished 2nd. Again Zasada persuaded factory to let him borrow a works car which he entered privately after 71 fiasco when Waldegaard in works 911S was leading until coming across team-mate Zasada who would not let him pass and there was a crash which retired Waldegaard while Zasada eventually finished 5th. In 72 EAS Zasada might have won but loads of punctures then electrics fused, so he missed out again. Does not look like 2.4, so probably 71 2.2 - seems well prepared this year - proper sumpguard, high suspension
