1954 Illustrierter Motorsport (GDR) Year 4 Volume 7






English Translation: "The illegal arrest of the well-known racing driver and fighter for peace, Manfred von Brauchitsch, had caused a powerful wave of protest and disgust against the machinations of Adenauer and his henchmen. All peace-loving and sincere Germans in all parts of our fatherland demanded the immediate release of this steadfast man in rallies and collections of signatures. The prosecution collapsed - the West German Federal Court of Justice lost out and Manfred von Brauchitsch is free again!

We wish him every success in his further fight to preserve peace and unification in all-German sport! But the other imprisoned patriots must also regain their freedom. Athletes, therefore intensify the fight for the release of Oskar Nolze and Martin Hamann. Our demand: Freedom for all German peace fighters!"



















In this edition Manfred von Brauchitsch is free after his arrest in West Germany on espionage charges, we review the AWO 425 motorcycle, racing in sand and snow, 365 days of events and remembering the Silver Arrows.
