Mannie Pinto: High-Speed Precision in the 1981 Sigma Series.

The 1981 Sigma Series season at Kyalami was defined by legendary drivers and iconic machinery. This exclusive print captures Mannie Pinto at the helm of his Chevron B29, navigating the limits of the historic South African circuit.

Sporting the striking Total and Sigma livery, Pinto’s #18 car was a staple of the competitive formula fields of the early 80s. This photograph is a perfect tribute to one of the stalwart drivers of the South African national circuit.
