Race Report: Kassel Calden, 22 August 1971

kassel_22_8_71
That’s right another airfield race track for the German F3 drivers to race around. The race, the Hessenpreis, was held over 40 laps of the 2.646 km track. As usual there were probably some 1-litre cars in the entry, Dieter Kern’s March 703 almost certainly was.
