Un 2 de julio de 1972 se corría por última vez el GP de Francia en Clermont-Ferrand. 20ª Victoria para Jackie Stewart (Tyrrell 003), 2º Emerson Fittipaldi (Lotus 72D), 3º Chris Amon (Matra MS120D). Helmut Marko (BRMP160B) perdió el ojo por una piedra, truncando su carrera.
And a BBC Blackout for a race normally televised owing to sponsorship deemed “unsuitable” and I don’t mean the Marlboro! How times change .. @thebishF1
#OnThisDay in ’76 James Hunt (McLaren M23) won the non-championship #F1#RaceOfChampions at Brands Hatch. Here he is being led by Alan Jones (Surtees TS19), who eventually finished 2nd. Left-field thought & pic caption: Durex first, Marlboro 2nd, as so often. 😉
We’ve just a about got through the Winter and today is the first day of meteorological Spring. It always puts me in mind of this fantastic TMS montage from The Voices of Summer.
If you grew up listening to Johnners, Blowers, Arlott and CMJ this is a real treat.
