Excluding the wet years, when was Le Mans last won by a car starting on treaded tyres?
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Hmm...
I'd have to say 1971.  I'm pretty sure the Porsche 917's ran treaded tires but by '72 the Matra's were on Goodyear slicks.
