Default Vic Elfford RIP

Vic lost his battle with cancer at age 86.

The two-time Le Mans class winner was active in various racing disciplines, including Formula 1 and sports car racing.

While he raced in F1 between 1968 and 1971, ‘Quick Vic’ mainly gained fame from his time in sports car racing, where he established a strong association with Porsche through multiple appearances in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Elford contested the French endurance classic eight times between 1967 and 1974.

Hate the loss. But 86 ain't bad for someone who raced at that level in the 60s and 70s.
