About this product

Jochen Mass displays a humorous and jovial exterior but beneath the surface is a focussed and driven competitor. Mass drove competitively between the years 1968-1991, a period spanning almost a quarter of a century, during which time the world witnessed quite possibly some of the most exciting times in motorsport. This period included the Porsche turbo years of the 1970s, and the wild and exciting years of Group C through the 1980s, but his career didn't only cover sports car. Jochen Mass drove for a good number of different manufacturers, including Alfa Romeo, Ford, Formula V, Formula 3, Formula 2, Chevron B21 sports cars and Team Surtees Formula 1. This was followed by a drive for the McLaren Formula 1 team in the M23. His move into sports car racing came in 1975 when he earned a seat in the Gelo Racing Ford Mirage in the European Interserie, followed by a stint in the Willi Kauhsen Alfa Romeo 33 TT 12. Through the late '70s Mass continued with Formula 1 racing through into the early '80s as well competing in sports car racing. But besides motor racing, Mass is a passionate yachtsman - this is his story.
