New Projects to be announced

The two new publications, all produced to a high standard of editorial, photographic, and statistical content, will cover the motorsport history of both Porsche and BMW at the iconic Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit. In addition, plans for a biography of a multiple South African Drivers’ Champion are on the horizon. The new publications will once again be authored by Denis.
