Celebrating fifty seasons of the most spectacular motorsport, the World Rally Championship marries state-of-the-art technology with endurance and speed in a battle against both the clock and the elements of nature. Rallying is the mother of all motorsport. Mastering a car on gravel, snow and asphalt, in extreme heat, ice, rain, fog and darkness is the supreme discipline on four wheels. The World Rally Championship, which has been held since 1973, has entered its 50th season. Time to look back at these automotive and human legends from Alpine to Integrale, from Colin McRae to Sébastien Loeb, from the wild Group B cars to the technically fascinating Rally1 racers with hybrid drive. It's all here in this book. With hundreds of photos from the McKlein archive, of which many are unique to this book, it encapsulates the highs and lows of a half a century's fight for the WRC crown: the technical development, the dramas, the heroic sagas and the curiosities. It's an encyclopaedia of an era of enthusiastic drifting, through to the battle for tenths of a second with the fastest cars of all time travelling on a mixture of gravel roads. A book of stories and pictures about the most spectacular motorsport in the world. //////////////////// 50 Mal WRC. Das sind 50 Saisons spektakulärster Motorsport. Modernste Technik, Robustheit, Ausdauer und schieres Tempo im Kampf gegen die Uhr - der Rallyesport ist die Mutter jeden Automobilsports. Das Beherrschen eines Autos auf hartem Asphalt oder blankem Eis, in größter Hitze, in Regen, Nebel und Dunkelheit ist die Königsdisziplin auf vier Rädern. Die seit 1973 ausgetragene Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft ist in ihre 50. Saison gegangen. Zeit, zurückzublicken auf automobile und menschliche Legenden von Alpine bis Integrale, von Colin McRae bis Sébastien Loeb, von der wilden Gruppe B bis zu den technisch faszinierenden Rally1-Rennern mit Hybridantrieb. Mit vielen teils bislang unveröffentlichten Fotos aus dem Archiv McKlein erzählt dieses Buch kompakt von jeder Saison eines halben Jahrhunderts Kampf um die WM-Krone: die technische Entwicklung, die Dramen, die Heldensagen und die Kuriositäten. Das ist ein Parforceritt von der Ära des gepflegten Drifts bis zum Kampf um Zehntelsekunden mit den auf unbefestigten Pfaden schnellsten Autos aller Zeiten. Ein Geschichten- und Bilderbuch über den aufregendsten Motorsport der Welt.

Only worked for 1 month.
Color: Black/Battery
This product was delivered on April 20th and worked great. It made a nice clean cut in the metal with no sharp edges and the top of the can lifted up nicely. Yesterday, May 24th, it stopped cutting and unfortunately, the return window closed on May 20th.

Super safe
Color: Black/Battery
The most easiest and safe can opener to have people with diabetes or heart issues that take blood thinners that can’t get cut this is perfect

Opens the can weird, but functional
Color: Black/Battery
Ehhh it’s easy to use and gets it open, my only issue is that it doesn’t open a can like a regular can opener where it is cut on top of the can and you can push it in the can to drain if needed. Rather it cuts the outside of the can as it spins around, so it doesn’t fit inside the can. Not very handy when you’re opening a can of tuna and want to drain the tuna juice, so I had to keep my manual one, that I was trying to get rid of by buying this electric one 🙃

Works Great!
Color: Black/Battery
I've only used it a few times since it arrived and it works great. Much better than the hand cranking can opener I've been using. It's a little loud, but that's not enough of a deterrent for me to stop using it. The noise is a temporary annoyance that I'll gladly put up with to have a can opener that actually completely opens a can.

Super convenient and easy to use!
Color: Black/Battery
This electric can opener is a game-changer in the kitchen. It operates smoothly with just the press of a button and leaves safe, smooth edges on the cans. Very compact and handy.
