Description :
When the chance came around to experience first-hand a race whose fame touches the
stars, Adolf Zika didn‘t hesitate for a moment. In an atmosphere where 300-kilometer
speeds are no exception and in fact, such speed is a prerequisite, he took along
two ‚guests‘ who don’t have much in common with sport photography, but cameras whose
names in their field are as famous as La Mans itself. But only from crazy ideas
can one expect uncommon results. With the support of the Hasselblad/Phase One and
Leica companies, the author created two perspectives. One ultramodern color and
with the best state-of-the-art digital technology and one black-and-white retro
perspective which honors the classical roots of photojournalism. Despite the two
publications being very different from one another, they were photographed at the
same moments and in the same place, by one person, with one eye and one finger.
The mission of a child‘s dream of Le Mans was fulfilled in many ways.
