🥌 Aston Martin Dbr1 Le Mans 1959

Pourrésumer. Le département personnalisation d’Aston Martin, Q, a dévoilé la DBS 59, une édition très limitée qui rend hommage à la victoire historique de

The Aston Martin DBR1 was a sports racing car built by Aston Martin starting in 1956, intended for the World Sportscar Championship as well as non-championship sportscar races at the time. It is most famous as the victor of the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, one of only two wins to date for Aston Martin at the endurance classic. Design Following changes to the rules for sportscar racing, entrants no longer had to use cars which were road legal, or based on road legal cars, such as the Aston Martin DB3S. Therefore, with the ability to create a sportscar from a clean slate for 1956, Aston Martin created the DBR1, with Ted Cutting as chief designer. The body evolved from the DB3S's shape, featuring a much lower profile. Most notable was that the back of the front wheel well was no longer left open. Instead, the DBR1 featured full bodywork with a large triangular vent on the side, a design trait which would become standard on all future Aston Martins. The DBR1 was initially fitted with a smaller 2493 cc new all alloy racing engine very loosely derived from the racing version of the Lagonda Straight-6 engine, even though the DBR1's predecessor, the DB3S, was at the time racing with a larger 2922 cc engine. Later DBR1s would feature the Straight-6 2992 cc, rated at 250 hp 186 kW.

Later DBR1s would feature the Straight-6 2992 cc, rated at 250 hp 186 kW. 1956 Debuting at the 1956 24 Hours of Le Mans, David Brown's Aston Martin racing team set out with the DBR1/1 alongside two older DB3Ss. Although performing well through most of the race, the DBR1 suffered gearbox failure after 246 laps, forcing drivers Reg Parnell and Tony Brooks to retire. 1957 Making a full debut in the 1957 World Sportscar Championship season as well as various non-championship races, DBR1/1 recorded its first finish, with a 2nd place for Roy Salvadori at the British Empire Trophy, followed by another 2nd place at the Goodwood Circuit's Sussex Trophy. DBR1/1 was then upgraded with the newer engine, and joined by the identical DBR1/2. Together at the Spa Sportscar Race, Aston Martin took the top two spots, with Tony Brooks winning over Roy Salvadori. At the fourth round of the World Sportscar Championship, the 1000km Nürburgring, DBR1/2 took an overall victory at the hands of Tony Brooks and Noël Cunningham-Reid, earning Aston Martin its own championship points that season. Roy Salvadori and Les Leston would finish 6th in the same race. Unfortunately, at the 1957 24 Hours of Le Mans, both DBR1s failed to finish. DBR1/2 would take the only other victory of the season at the non-championship Spa Grand Prix. 1958 For 1958, DBR1/3 was completed and began to compete. David Brown chose to concentrate on the World Sportscar Championship exclusively, leaving the DBR2 for non-championship races. The team did not enter the opening round in Buenos Aires, choosing instead to race at the following round, the 12 Hours of Sebring. Neither DBR1 managed to finish, both suffering gearbox failure. This was followed at the Targa Florio, with the new DBR1/3 also suffering a gearbox failure and not finishing. At the 1000km Nürburgring, where the DBR1 had won the previous year, Aston Martin managed to repeat, with Stirling Moss and Jack Brabham's DBR1/3 beating a large contingent of Ferraris and Porsches. Unfortunately the bad luck returned at Le Mans, with all three DBR1s failing to finish again. However, at the season ending Tourist Trophy, Aston Martin managed a 1-2-3 finish for all cars, with Stirling Moss and Tony Brooks driving the winning car. This dominating victory allowed Aston Martin to finish 2nd in the constructor's championship behind Ferrari. 1959 Returning again for 1959, Aston Martin had completed two more chassis, DBR1/4 and DBR1/5. The first car was actually a conversion from a DBR3, while DBR1/5 was a spare chassis sold to privateer Graham Whitehead, the only car to do so. With four chassis, Aston Martin would again concentrate on the World Sportscar Championship. The season started slowly, with a sole DBR1 failing to finish at the 12 Hours of Sebring, then followed by the team not appearing at the Targa Florio. Luck returned again for Aston Martin, as the sole factory entry again won the 1000km Nürburgring, with Stirling Moss and Jack Fairman driving. However, Aston Martin's success would continue with what is considered their finest motorsports triumph. DBR1/2, driven by Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori, took victory at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans. DBR1/4, driven by Maurice Trintignant and Paul Frére, managed second. The next closest competitor was a distant 25 laps behind the duo. With the constructors championship now closely contested by Ferrari and Aston Martin, the team appeared at the final round at Goodwood. Aston Martin entered three DBR1s, as well as privateer Graham Whitehead's DBR1/5. During the race, DBR1/3 caught fire in the pits, destroying the car and leaving Aston Martin without room to refuel their other cars. To salvage Aston Martin's hopes of a championship, Graham Whitehead withdrew his entry from the race in order to allow Aston Martin to use his pits stall and finish the race. Able to continue, Stirling Moss, Carroll Shelby and Jack Fairman in DBR1/2 were able to secure victory and the championship over Ferrari, the only World Championship won by Aston Martin. Privateers Following Aston Martin's success in 1959, David Brown decided to make an unsuccessful move to Formula One with the DBR4 and DBR5. Thus the factory's David Brown Racing Department would no longer compete in sportscars. The four DBR1s retained by the factory, including the rebuilt DBR1/3, were sold off to customers for use in various championships. DBR1/2 would be the only car to score a win in privateer hands, winning the 1960 Rouen Grand Prix. Following the 1962 season, all DBR1s would retire from racing and eventually end up in museums or private collections. DBR1/4 is notable for having appeared in the 1960 film adaptation of The Sound and the Fury. v d eAston Martin vehicles Classic production cars 12/50 • 15/98 • DB1 • DB2 • DB2/4 • DB4 • DB4 GT Zagato • DB5 • DB6 • DB Mark III • DBS • First Series • International Le Mans • Lagonda Le Mans • Mark II • Short Chassis Volante • Sports • Super Sports • Ulster • V8 • V8 Vantage • V8 Zagato • Virage Classic racecars Litre • AMR1 • DBR1 • DBR2 • DB3 • DB3S • DBR3 • DBR4 • DBR5 • DP212 • DP214 • DP215 • DPLM • EMKA • Halford Special • Razor Blade • RHAM/1 • Speed Models Classic concept cars A1 • A3 • Atom • Bulldog • DB2/4 Spider • DB2/4 Supersonic • DB4 GT Jet • DBSC • DBS V8 Sotheby Special • Lagonda Vignale

Lesuccès arrive lors des 1.000km du Nurburgring avec une nouvelle victoire sur cette épreuve, mais Aston Martin bute à nouveau aux 24 Heures du Mans où les trois DBR1 abandonnent. Aston Martin revient à nouveau pour la saison 1959 avec la DBR1 avec deux nouvelles voitures dont une pour une écurie privée. The 24 Hours of Le Mans runs this weekend, and as part of the festival that accompanies the event, the 1959 Aston Martin DBR1 will return to the scene of its victory in the hands of Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori. Shelby and Salvadori both passed away in the past several weeks, along with the car's chief engineer, Ted Cutting. All three will be honored during the event. As Aston's motorsport chief David King put it, “We were deeply saddened by the loss of Carroll, Roy and Ted. They all played a hugely important role in Aston Martin’s racing history and will forever remain part of the company’s heritage. To mark their passing, we felt it fitting to return their car to the scene of its greatest victory." Shelby has been honored in many ways already, including a memorial ceremony and "Rev your Engine" salute. Salvadori died just 23 days after Shelby. Salvadori and Shelby shared the wheel of the Aston Martin DBR1 to win the overall victory at the famous 24-hour race in 1959 for the David Brown Racing Department team. Their margin of victory was one lap, covering a total of 2, miles at an average speed of mph. ^{118 CMR Aston Martin DBR1 24h Le Mans Winner 1959 Limited 784021.

HistoryAston Martin had, since its inception back in 1913, always been a keen player in the motor racing scene. However, after having all of its tooling sold to the Sopwith Aviation Company for aircraft production during World War I, later bouts of financial problems and another run in aircraft component production during the Second World War, that after the war, Aston Martin was about as close to being able to make another assault on Le Mans as what the east is from the Sir David Brown. David Brown Limited would purchase the company right along with Lagonda. Using the desirable Bentley-designed engine, Brown and Aston Martin would focus on creating stylish 'grand touring' cars. However, Sir David Brown's heart always beat right along with the ticks of a second hand. And no place would give him such a rush, such a passionate desire to succeed as Le Mans. Aston Martin had been successful in the French classic, but those years had long since passed. And with the state of the company during the late 1940s, it seemed like it would be forever before another Aston Martin would ever reach the top step of the Le Mans podium. Some undoubtedly believed it would never happen Sir David Brown didn't see it that way. And he would set about creating some truly athletic sportscars that would give him and his company the best chance possible. Brown's company would focus on racing because they knew full well that success on the track meant sales of production cars. It also meant advancements in technology that would only help the company achieve Brown's 1951, Aston Martin's DB2 entered production. Aston would then take its new DB2 and would enter it in the class at Le Mans in 1951 and would promptly earn a clean sweep in the class and would earn a 3rd, 5th and 7th overall finish. Another DB2 would finish 10th overall for the Mann success would only wet Brown's appetite all the more. But Brown, being a gearbox manufacturer knew what it would take to compete for overall victories, and the team wasn't quite there yet. Therefore, Aston Martin would use the early part of the 1950s to focus on the smaller classes of endurance racing in order to build up confidence and reliability. But ultimately, the goal was to enter the higher classes and fight for an overall victory. The Bentley-designed six-cylinder engine had served as the resurrection for Aston Martin. However, against the likes of Jaguar, Ferrari and Maserati, the engine was underpowered. As a result, the best result in the overall standings at Le Mans for Aston Martin would come during the tragic 1955 Le Mans in which Mercedes would suffer the terrible accident that killed Pierre Levegh and more than 80 spectators. When they pulled out during the early morning hours Jaguar was left all alone to fight for the overall victory. An Aston Martin Ltd. DB3S would end up picking up the pieces finishing in 2nd place but would be some five laps down to the Jaguar driven by Mike Hawthorn Ivor problem Brown and Aston Martin had would be that the six-cylinder engine was a good one, very reliable and strong. Though it didn't quite have the power of its competitors it had the reliability and strength that were necessary to run for 24 hours and be there still at the end. So it was clear the engine could be tuned but needed to remain because it offered just too many advantages. Therefore, the performance deficiencies would have to be made up in the chassis itself. Therefore, in 1956, Ted Cutting, Aston's chief designer, set about creating an entirely new spaceframe chassis that not only weighed less but also offered exceptional rigidity. Cutting's design would work. He would manage to shave some 50 pounds off of the new design but would improve the rigidity of the car at the same time. Fitted with front and rear suspensions that were holdovers from the DB3S, Lockheed disc brakes and Brown's own transversely mounted gearbox, the twin-cam DBR1/1, as it would become known, would debut in 1956, but it would certainly look better than it in speed, the DBR1 would only take part in one race, the 1956 24 Hours of Le Mans. However, the car would still be useful to the team. John Wyler and Reg Parnell would take the DBR1/1 and would continually develop it for the following season. Things would improve slightly in 1957, but still, the car lacked outright then the engineers tried the six-cylinder engine in the DBR1. The engine had been used in the DB3S. When combined with three Weber carburetors, power of the engine increased to over 250 bhp. Combined with the elegantly-designed body, the engine would help to forge and beautiful pairing that would have made Astaire and Rogers immediately the car would be successful winning the Spa Grand Prix in 1957, the first for a DBR1. Before the season was over, the DBR1 would go on to win two more races. One would come at the famous 1000 km of the Nurburgring and another would be in a three hour race back at Spa. However, at Le Mans, the DBR1/2 still could not provide Brown his sought after then Providence would drop the opportunity of a lifetime right in their laps. By the end of the 1957 season, the regulations would change limiting sports prototype's engine displacement to just All of a sudden, Jaguar's D-Types and the Maserati 450S were out of the running. Maserati would have deeper problems than just a displacement issue, and therefore, would withdraw all together. That meant just Ferrari would be Aston Martin's main competition heading into the 1958 seemed everything was right for Brown to finally achieve his dream of winning at Le Mans. However, as before, it was not to be. Between an accident and a couple of mechanical problems, all of the David Brown Aston Martins would fail to make it to the end of the race. This would be yet another bitter disappointment to Brown's greatest aim. Still, it seemed the team had all of the necessary elements. The team just needed some reliability and they would be in good shape. So, Aston Martin plugged away, still believing in the DBR1 to be the car that would earn them victory at Le Mans. And what was there not to believe? Cutting would manage to create an absolutely beautiful car. Bearing similarity to the D-Type Jags with its heavily rounded bulbous fenders, large wide-mouth grille, arching top bodyline and the large single-piece wrap-around windscreen, the DBR1 was certainly a gorgeous car to behold. But underneath the elegant bodywork, the car was all business. Of course, the major component of this potent package would rest up front. The longitudinally mounted normally aspirated straight 6, with its Weber 45 DCO carburetors, would produce a little more than 250 bhp at around 6200 rpm. And when combined with a car weighing a little more than 1750 pounds, top speeds would well exceed 160 mph down the Mulsanne. Carroll Shelby would regard the DBR1 in such positive terms. 'The DBR1 was a very good handling car,' Shelby would relate, 'we were definitely superior to the others in terms of handling.'The superior handling of the DBR1 would as a result of Cutting shedding pounds off of the spaceframe design and the use of Girling disc brakes on all four corners of the car. Stability within the car would come from Brown's 5-speed gearbox being mounted within the axels of the wheels, a trailing link front suspension and a De Dion rear that boasted of trailing links and torsion its frustrating results at Le Mans, as Carroll Shelby would make abundantly clear, 'You always felt safe in the carâ€”you always wanted to drive the Aston. I never heard a driver criticize it.' Such feelings toward a car meant the team and drivers could have confidence heading into Le Mans despite the fact the past had not been confidence would lead the team to enter the 1959 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans as a team on the prowl. And despite its history, the team would still determine it would be good to send Stirling Moss and his co-driver, Jack Fairman, out as rabbits in order to coax Ferrari into a high-speed duel. Ferrari knew they could allow Moss and Fairman to escape into the distance only so far before they needed to do something about reeling them back in. Meanwhile, the sister-cars of Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby and Maurice Trintignant and Paul Frere, would constitute Aston's main thrust toward an overall tactic would work. The DBR1 would open up such a lead that it would force Ferrari to respond. In the end, the incredible pace would take its toll. The Ferraris would be up at the front throughout the running of the race, but in the final few hours it would be Roy Salvadori at the wheel of chassis DBR1/2 in the lead of the race over his Aston Martin teammates of Trintignant and Frere. Amazingly, at 4pm on the 21st of June Salvadori powered his way across the finish line for the final time ahead of the sister car to complete an Aston Martin one-two! It would be an absolutely demonstrative victory with Aston Martins leading home a field mostly made up of just GT cars. And though Trintignant and Frere would end up a lap behind the victorious car driven by Salvadori and Shelby, the next-closest car out on the circuit would be some 26 laps, or, nearly 218 miles behind!By the end of the 1959 season, Aston Martin would win the World Sportscar Championship, but it would be that moment at 4pm on the 21st of June that David Brown had been waiting forever since he dreamt of Le Mans and when he took over Aston Martin. He had brought together all of the right pieces. It was all blended into the creation known as the DBR1, and with that, Sir David Brown's Aston Martin entered Le Mans legend.

Their first victory was at the Aston Hill Climb in 1914 and this victory became the basis for the company's name. Their early years of production focused heavily on racing and competition cars but a need for survival in a fierce marketplace led them to produce road cars.

The DB3S was introduced in 1953 and even though it was modern and fast it was outclassed by Ferrari and Maserati. In 1956 the company introduced the DBR1 which was similar to the DB3S but far superior. With Stirling Moss, Tony Brooks, Jack Fairman, Carroll Shelby, and Roy Salvadori the company experienced some of its greatest victories ever. 1959 was the pinnacle of their success with a first and second-place finish at Lemans and winning World SportsCar 1959, the company retired from the SportsCar Championship series so they could concentrate on Formula 1.

Home News Limited Edition Aston Martin DBS 59 Celebrates Legendary Le Mans Victory The car pays tribute to the legendary Aston Martin DBR1 racer that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1959. Aston Martin is honoring the legacy of the iconic DBR1 race car that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1959 with the launch of a new special edition DBS Superleggera developed by the automaker's Q personalization division. Commissioned by Aston Martin Cambridge, the Aston Martin DBS 59 features several unique design cues inspired by the DBR1 such as the gleaming Aston Martin Racing Green paintwork. There's also extensive use of gloss finish carbon fiber on the roof, roof strake, and painted hood louvres, while bronze accents adorn the grille, spoiler and wheels. Aston Martin The retro theme continues inside with a mix of Obsidian Black and Chestnut Tan leather used throughout the interior, and the seat backs and door inserts are trimmed with fabric inspired by the DBR1 seat material. Elsewhere, Aston Martin's Q division has added bespoke Saddle Leather Helmet Pods in the rear compartment to hold special 'DBS 59' crash helmets, race suits and gloves, and a bespoke 'DBS 59' logo embroidered in the seat will receive a two-piece luggage set which matches the interior, while an Aston Martin Racing Green car cover is also included featuring a white roundel with the car's production number. "When Aston Martin Cambridge expressed a desire to create a limited run of DBS Superleggeras inspired by the DBR1's famous Le Mans victory we knew it had to be something special," said Aston Martin Vice-President and Chief Marketing Officer, Simon Sproule."The soft metallic hue of the Aston Martin Racing Green paintwork is classy and timelessly beautiful; the level of thought and detailing is exceptional. My favorite element on the 'DBS 59' are the seat backs that feature fabric inspired by the DBR1 seat material, but there are countless touches that will intrigue and delight". Aston Martin Like the standard DBS Superleggera, the DBS 59 is powered by a V12 engine that produces 715 hp and 663 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. 0-62 mph takes seconds before the car hits a top speed of 211 Aston Martin DBS 59 will be available to order from the Aston Martin Cambridge dealership, which is currently taking orders. Only 24 examples are being produced, each representing one hour of the endurance race the DBR1 competed in nearly 50 years ago. Aston Martin

Onthe Aeroblade of DBS 59, Q by Aston Martin has added a foil inlay–also in bronze–that outlines the original shape, chassis number and engine number of the DBR1 that won Le Mans in 1959.

Dans les années 1950, les anglais ont la cote sur les 24 heures du Mans grâce à Jaguar qui inscrit son nom cinq fois au sommet de l’épreuve mancelle. Depuis longtemps, Aston Martin est présent sur cette course mythique, la DBR1 a la mission d’aller jouer la gagne… Dans l’immédiat de la seconde guerre mondiale, le constructeur anglais Aston Martin doit son salut à David Brown Limited qui opère une fusion de la marque avec Lagonda. Rapidement, Aston Martin retourne à la compétition et inscrit son nom en 1948 lors des 24 heures de Spa. En 1951, Aston Martin donne naissance à la lignée DB3, une voiture de compétition qui reprend quelques pièces de la DB2. La DB3 tenta diverses compétitions, jusqu’à la formule 1 dans sa version DB3 GP, ou encore la DB3 S en endurance. En 1956, l’Aston Martin DB3 S laisse sa place à la DBR1, cette dernière bénéficie des changements de la réglementation sportive qui n’impose plus que les voitures de compétition soient issues de voitures homologuées pour la route. Ainsi, la DBR1 a pu être conçue comme une voiture de compétition dès le départ ! Pour la carrosserie, Aston Martin récupère la base de la DB3S mais abaisse son profil pour le rendre plus aérodynamique. Côté mécanique, la DBR1 s’équipe initialement d’un moteur six cylindres en ligne de 2,5 litres de cylindrée, un moteur nouveau réalisé en alliage et s’inspirant d’un moteur Lagonda. La transmission s’effectue aux roues arrières en passant par une boite manuelle à cinq rapports. La DBR1 lance sa carrière lors de la saison 1956 lors des 24 heures du Mans, la voiture ne voit pas l’arrivé à cause d’une rupture de boite de vitesse en toute fin de course lors de son 246ème tour. L’Aston Martin DBR1 ne pointa pas le bout de son nez avant la saison 1957, toujours avec son moteur 2,5 litres, qui signe deux secondes places lors du British Empire Trophy et lors d’une course sur le circuit de Goodwood. Ensuite, la DBR1 s’équipe d’un moteur de deux litres de cylindrée, alimenté par trois carburateurs Weber double corps, ce qui permet à la mécanique de proposer 254Cv. Avec ces améliorations, la DBR1 signe un doublé à Spa, suivi d’une victoire aux de Nurburgring. Aston Martin dispose désormais d’une voiture capable de jouer les avants postes sur les grandes courses du monde, et notamment pour les 24 Heures du Mans qui arrivent. Hélas, les espoirs d’Aston Martin sont douchés avec une onzième place. Pour la saison 1958, Aston Martin s’équipe de trois DBR1, mais le début de saison est marqué par de nombreuses casses mécaniques, mais la voiture se montre très rapide, notamment avec Stirling Moss au volant. Le succès arrive lors des du Nurburgring avec une nouvelle victoire sur cette épreuve, mais Aston Martin bute à nouveau aux 24 Heures du Mans où les trois DBR1 abandonnent. Aston Martin revient à nouveau pour la saison 1959 avec la DBR1 avec deux nouvelles voitures dont une pour une écurie privée. La saison commence mal puisque les 12 heures de Sebring ne voient pas finir les DBR1, la première victoire arrive avec les du Nurburgring remporté une troisième fois de suite. Puis la DBR1 arrive à marquer son nom sur le sommet du podium des 24 heures du Mans cette année, la BDR1 signe même une seconde place, les deux DBR1 mettant 25 tours à la Ferrari 250 qui occupe la troisième place cette année. Grâce à cette victoire aux 24 heures du Mans, Aston Martin peut prétendre au titre de champion du monde des constructeurs, mais la lutte est serrée avec Ferrari et Porsche. C’est lors du Tourist Trophy à Goodwood que tout se joue, sur les trois DBR1 engagées, l’une prend feu mais une autre BDR1 remporte l’épreuve, devant une Ferrari et une Porsche. Par conséquent, Aston Martin remporte le championnat, le seul jamais gagné par la marque anglaise…

PHOTO FROM ASTON MARTIN Remember Q, the crazy special vehicles division of Aston Martin that transforms city cars into Tasmanian devils? It turns out that they can dial down their very creative minds just a bit and still make something that boggles the mind. This time, they’ve paid homage to the legendary DBR1 race car from 1959 by creating the aptly named DBS 59. It is just a prettified DBS Superleggera, actually. PHOTO FROM ASTON MARTIN The 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans was rife with very experienced competitors. Big names like Ferrari, Jaguar and Porsche were hungry for blood. Since this was an era before fire-retardant systems and FIA-approved roll cages, the drivers didn’t really have absolute control over their fate. The horror of Mercedes-Benz’s deadly crash of 1955 was still fresh on everyone’s mind. But the David Brown Racing team wasn’t going to let any of that dampen its spirits. Handed very light and very quick Aston Martin DBR1s, the brave men piloting these machines set about picking the competition one by one. The race took its toll on the fragile cars as only 13 competitors were able to finish 24 grueling hours. At the top two podium positions were DBR1s, with the winning car driven to victory by a certain chicken farmer turned speed junkie by the name of Carroll Shelby. Enthusiasts would know what the marks mean. PHOTOS FROM ASTON MARTIN Fellow Aston Martin works driver Stirling Moss was quoted as saying that the DBR1 was “the most important Aston Martin ever built.” Big words considering that the storied British automaker has had several cars throughout its history that have pushed the boundaries of performance on the racetrack. Still, the guys at Q agreed that a fitting tribute to the DBR1 should be made. And boy, did they come up with something truly special. Classy color scheme right here. Excellent job, Q! PHOTOS FROM ASTON MARTIN They took 24 units of their very special DBS Superleggera and transformed them into the DBS 59. The limited run represents the number of hours in the famed race. Each handcrafted car is painted in special Aston Martin Racing Green, complemented by carbon-fiber trim pieces in a high-gloss finish. But don’t expect to see this beauty standing still for very long. The DBS Superleggera packs 715hp courtesy of a twin-turbocharged V12 engine. The sprint to 100km/h is dispatched in The interior has seat fabric inspired by the DBR1. PHOTO FROM ASTON MARTIN To create that signature DBR1 feel, the DBS 59’s seat material is made from the same fabric as that of the classic race car’s perches. The interior is trimmed in a combination of luxurious Obsidian Black and Chestnut Tan leather. Discerning customers of Aston’s latest limited-edition masterpiece can even get period-correct blue racing suits and string-backed driving gloves similar to those worn by Shelby. Optional 1959 replica helmets fit snuggly in special helmet pods specific to the DBS 59. Completing the iconic Le Mans racer look are painted exterior roundels with the car’s series number. The Aston Martin DBR1 is currently the world’s most valuable British car at £ million billion. Even by the standards of the absurdly rich and famous, that’s a pretty pricey toy. But with the DBS 59, you can get the same race-winning pedigree without the silly price tag. Just hurry up though. Q can’t be bothered into making more than 24 of these cars.

In1958 Stirling Moss and Jack Brabham won the Nurburgring 1000 kilometer in our car but again there was no luck at Le Mans. With a win in the Tourist Trophy, Aston Martin earned second place in the Manufacturers Championship behind Ferrari. 1959 was their greatest year with another Moss victory at the Nurburgring.

À l’époque, deux DBR1 avaient franchi la ligne d’arrivée en première et en deuxième position. Roy Salvadori et Carroll Shelby étaient aux commandes de la première DBR1, tandis que Maurice Trintignant et Paul Frère pilotaient celle qui a terminé l’épreuve en deuxième position. Ces vingt-quatre DBS 59 sont basées sur la DBS Superleggera et conservent la motorisation V12 de 5,2 litres qui développe une cavalerie de 715 chevaux. La boite automatique à huit rapports et également conservée. Évidemment, chacune d’entre elles arbore la couleur de carrosserie Aston Martin Racing Green, avec amplement de fibre de carbone exposée. Le contour de la grille de calandre et les écussons Aston Martin sont de couleur bronze. Sur le becquet arrière, on peut lire une l’inscription discrète DBR1/2-RB6/300/6, qui est le numéro de châssis de la DBR1 originale. À l’intérieur, Aston Martin a donné à la sellerie le look et la texture qu’adoptait celle de la rarissime DBR1, avec le logo DBS 59 brodé dans le dossier des sièges. Les couleurs et matériaux sont inspirés non seulement des voitures originales de 1959, mais également des combinaisons que portaient les pilotes lors de leur victoire aux 24 Heures du Mans.

L’entreprise de vente aux enchères de voitures classiques, RM Sotheby’s, s’attend à ce que cette voiture, la première Aston Martin DBR1 jamais construite (DBR1/1), atteigne la somme de 20 millions de dollars à sa vente aux Ligne somptueuse, rareté et palmarès les 3 critères qui font d’une voiture ancienne un objet de convoitise absolue sont réunis dans cette Aston Martin DBR1. Vous pensiez que les trouvailles des maisons de ventes aux enchères passées sous le marteau à Pebble Beach avaient épuisé le marché ? Que les voitures les plus rares et chères de l’année 2012 avaient déjà été vendues ? Revoyez votre jugement ! La société Talacrest, déjà responsable de la vente d’une Ferrari 250 GTO pour 35 millions de dollars il y a quelques mois, propose aujourd’hui l’Anglaise la plus convoitée au monde l’Aston Martin DBR1 châssis 2 victorieuse aux 24h du Mans 1959 entre les mains de Carroll Shelby et Roy Salvadori. Ajoutez à ça une ligne somptueuse digne d’une Ferrari 250 TR et sa rareté 5 exemplaires, et vous obtenez un futur record en matière de tarifs. La DBR1 Esthétiquement, l’Aston Martin DBR1 est une évolution de la DB3S mais les nouvelles réglementations pour l’année 1956 permirent à la marque de David Brown d’apporter quelques modifications. Elle s’avère donc beaucoup plus basse et, surtout, sa carrosserie entoure totalement les roues. La conséquence est l’apparition de l’aération triangulaire sur les flancs, qui deviendra ensuite l’une des signatures stylistiques majeures d’Aston Martin. Sous son capot avant, la DBR1 débuta avec un 6 cylindres en ligne de 2,5 litres, qui grimpera à 3 litres pour 250 ch en 1957. Châssis 2 Après un abandon aux 24h du Mans du châssis 1 en 1956, Aston Martin revient en 1957 avec deux voitures, dont le 2 en vente aujourd’hui. Ce dernier effectue sa première sortie en course à Spa, qu’elle remporte. La voiture continuera sur cette lancée en accrochant la victoire aux km du Nürburgring et au Grand Prix de Spa hors championnat. L’année suivante, elle participe uniquement au championnat et remporte le Tourist Trophy de Goodwood entre les mains d’un certain Sir Stirling Moss. Année historique pour Aston L’année 1959 reste à marquer d’une pierre blanche chez Aston Martin. En début de saison, les 5 DBR1 sont complétées et participent au Championnat du monde. Le début de saison est mitigé, mais le châssis 1 remporte tout de même les km du Nürburgring. Puis arrivent les 24h du Mans et le doublé historique de la marque Shelby et Salvadori sur la 2 remportent la course en devançant Maurice Trintignant et Paul Frère au volant de la 4. Le châssis 2 s’offre ensuite une nouvelle victoire à Goodwood entre les mains de Moss, Shelby et Jack Fairman, offrant ainsi à Aston Martin le seul championnat du monde de son histoire. La suite pour 2 Après cette victoire, Aston Martin décide de s’engager en Formule 1. La marque revend donc ses 4 DBR1 restantes la 3 avait pris feu dans les stands à Goodwood en 1959 à des écuries privées. La 2 est la seule à accrocher une dernière victoire, au Grand Prix de Rouen 1960. Les Aston Martin DBR1 prennent ensuite leur retraite en 1962, rejoignant des collections privées et naviguant le monde des courses historiques. Son propriétaire actuel la détient depuis 20 ans et elle est en parfait état de marche. 25 millions d’Euros En clair, il s’agit de l’Anglaise la plus mythique de tous les temps et probablement de l’une des 5 voitures de course les plus importantes de l’histoire de l’automobile, aux côtés d’engins comme la Mercedes 300SLR 722 » ou la Ford GT40 victorieuse au Mans en 1969. Annoncée à 20 millions de £ environ 25 millions d’euros au taux actuel, elle deviendrait ainsi la voiture britannique la plus chère de l’histoire en quadruplant le précédent record et rejoindrait le Top 5 mondial ! Pour ceux qui n’ont pas tout à fait les moyens, il reste la maquette taille réelle… Et en bonus, une vidéo d’Aston Martin DBR1 à Goodwood qui mérite d’être entendue, ci-dessous ou sur Youtube.

DavidBrown had always set his sights on a win at Le Mans. This was to be achieved in 1959 together with victory in the World Sports Car Championship by the team of DBR1’s. This model proved to be highly successful, and along with

AstonDBR 1/300 Border Reivers Le Mans 1960 et 1961 En 1960 David Brown, propriétaire d'Aston Martin, est devant le dilemme de continuer la compétition sur la voie du succès ou d'arrêter la compétition à son plus haut niveau et se concentrer. En effet la compétition coûte de plus en plus chère. La DBR1 semble être arrivée au maximum de son potentiel et être dépasser par les Ferrari. De plus le nouveau moteur V8 n'est pas prêt. Aston Martin est alors une entreprise de 200 personnes qui doit se concentrer sur ses modèles de production. Aussi David Brown choisit-il de vendre ses modèles de compétition DBR1 à des écuries privées. DBR1/3 châssis n°3 L'écurie des Border Reivers fais l'acquisition de la DBR1/3 châssis n°3 immatriculée FSH360. C'est la voiture qui avait été brûlé à Goodwood pendant la Tourist Trophy de 1959 des modifications en seront plus facilement décidées. Cette écurie écossaise crée par Jock McBain et ses amis à Chirnside, Berwickshire dans les années 1950 elle est plus vielle que l'Ecurie Ecosse, et c'est dans cette écurie que Jim Clark se révéla dans le British Racing en 1958. L'année 1959 sera une année de victoires encore pour le jeune pilote qui se fera remarquer par Colin Chapman lequel lui offre un volant pour les 24Heures du Mans. En 1960 le pilote partage sa carrière avec Lotus en formule 2 et Les Border Reivesr en endurance. La voiture est modifiée. Le règlement impose un pare-brise plus haut, ce qui nécessitera l'ajout d'un montant central de riveté pour rigidifier le Pesrplex et d'un essuie-glace entouré de deux prises d'air pour garantir la vision et l'aération du pilote. Le modèle voit son arrière modifié pour gagner en aérodynamique l'appui tête disparaît au profit d'une arrière plus rond et englobant cependant qu'un coffre à bagage » vient en troubler la ligne exigence du nouveau règlement pris bien au pied de la lettre chez les Border Reivers. Le rétroviseur central doit de ce fait être monté au dessus du pare brise il est fixé sur un trépieds. De type obus il est légèrement décalé du centre de l'auto vers la gauche. Les ailes enveloppantes avant et les flasques d'arche de roues arrières disparaissent ainsi que le tendelet qui recouvrait le coté passager, une bâche en plastique transparent et fixée au pare brise reste la seule protection. Le petit feu de calendre précédemment situé au centre descendra en bas de l'entrée d'aire fixé sur une plaque triangulaire Enfin la couleur aussi change ; le vert Almond Green fait place à un bleu foncé plus écossais ». Le Mans 1960 C'est donc sur l'Aston Martin ex usine que Clark rejoint Roy Salvadori vainqueur du Mans 1959 pour la saison d' course partie en dixième position la n°7 pilotée par Jim Clark va bondir en tête. mais la forte opposition des Ferrari venues en nombre, jaguar et Maserati vont rattrapé le jeune pilote anglais qui retrouvera sixième a la deuxième heure. C'est une calme mais sûre ascension dans le peloton de tête qui s'engage cinquième à la troisième heure et enfin troisième à la sixième. Mais le nouveau règlement avec ce pare brise plus haut et une contenance du réservoir limitée vas être source de nouvelles contraintes et déboires. Les consommations de carburant ont augmentés plusieurs pannes sèches, les vitesses de pointe diminuées. Prudemment et faisant preuve de maîtrise, les pilotes de l'Aston ne se mêleront pas trop aux bagarres de tête préférant assurer un podium conquis dés la seizième heure sur une route glissante l'épreuve fut très arrosée. Classement final troisième avec 306 tours Le Mans 1961 Sur l'Aston Martin des Border Reivers, Clark partage le volant avec Ron Flockhart vainqueur 1956 e t 57 sur Jaguar. En effet Roy Salvadori a rejoint Tony Maggs sur l'autre Aston DBR1 chassis n°4 engagée par une autre écurie privée la John Ogier Essex Racing. La voiture est identique a l'année précédente à part le numéro elle porte le 5. La course Parti en septième position rappelons que nous sommes en départ type le mans » Clark une nouvelle fois surgit en tête dans la courbe Dunlop, mais ils est rapidement rattrapé par les Ferrari qui sont arrivées en force cette année. Les quatre première heures verront une descente lente dans le classement douzième. Puis une remontée qui verra la voiture atteindre la quatrième place à la neuvième heure. La dixième heure verra les problèmes mécaniques arriver embrayage et l'abandon au 132ème tour, l'équipe était alors classée alors quinzième. La miniature base et modifications Le modèl de base est sorti d'une série presse de fabrication IXO. La miniaure est entièrement démontée. La carrosserie est décapée. Puis les ailes avant sont "dégonflées"par l'exterieur la ligne de carrosserie devant etre droite vue de dessus. Les arches de passage de roue avants sont modifiées en se servant des photos et plans, tandis que celles des roues arrières sont ouvertes. L'arrière est redessiné, l'appui tête est rabotté, et le "coffre à valise" fabriqué deux pièces et positionné. La pointe de carrosserie arrière refaite plus pointue et ornées de quatre feux. Les ouvertures latérales sont modelées dans de la plasticine et recouvertes de résine type synthofer prenant le galbe du capot arrière. Enfin les gravures sont effectuées coffre et entourage boite à valise. Poste de conduite et tableau de bord Le dessus du tableau de bord est percé de trois trous de 0,5mm afin de pouvoir y coller le trépied du rétroviseur obus. Enfin sur la base de l'ancien pare brise est dessiné le nouveau qui sera plus haut et moins incliné et portera en son centre un montant central posé en extérieur et dont une tige un grand rivet qui tient un montant du rétro ??? dépasse en son milieu. Avant peinture un petit support triangulaire est monté dans la partie inferieure de la bouche d'air couleur sera bleu écosse du drapeau écossais pas de l'écurie. Si certains ont préconisé le bleu métalisé de l'écurie écosse d'autres britaniques ont préféré le bleu non métalisé, je serai de leur décals là j'ai besoin d'aide ...... surtout pour l'emblème des border reivers la silhouette de chevalierA suivre ....... j'attend vos réactions

Chassis DBR1/2. This is the single most successful racing car ever built by Aston. After its victorious debut at the 1957 Spa 1000 km race, it scored five more victories. Most important of all was the win in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1959 in the hands of Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby. It was campaigned well into the 1962 season by privateers.

Reading time about 1 minute Aston Martin at Le Mans is a 30 minute film covering the entry of the British marque at the 1959 Le Mans, lead by driver Stirling Moss. The racing effort in ’59 was entrusted to the beautiful Aston Martin DBR1, a car that had been introduced in 1956 and evolved in iterations until the end of the 1959 racing season. With a dry weight of 801 kilograms and a 2922cc straight six, the DBR1 was an exceedingly quick car – especially in the hands of Moss. Other notable drivers include David Brown, Jim Clark, Jack Brabham and Carroll Shelby – a veritable who’s who of the big name drivers of the late ’50s and 1960s.
