There was a vintage race or exhibition at Le Mans in 1973 to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the first 24 Hours. I cannot find a report on this event, so will pose some questions:
When did it take place? Perhaps on the Friday before the Saturday start?
Was it a race or simply exhibition laps?
If a race, does anyone have results?
Both Luigi Chinetti and Phil Hill supposedly drove a Ferrari Barchetta (not the 1949 winning car, although it was painted to resemble it) in the event itself or events related to it - practice? Can any one clarify their roles?
Many thanks
