The yellow-capped photographer looks like Ulf Karlsson from Swedish motorsport magazine IMS. I can ask him. We live in the same town and I saw him yesterday

Quick question.
In the '74 GP, Bertil Roos did the practice sessions in his usual blue and yellow helmet.
For the race, he donned a plain white.
Anyone know why?

Hi all!
A year passes very fast and I´ve been otherwise
occupied so haven´t updated this thread.

Swedish GP please check them at

As always I´ll be very interested if you can

On this day 40 years ago the 1975 Swedish Grand Prix was
held at Scandinavian Raceway in Anderstorp.
As usual I and my brother was there for all three days.
A newcomer to the GP was my new camera, a Asahi
Pentax ME2 with two Tamron lenses. A wideangel
28 mm and a 100-300 macro-zoom. The film was
Agfachrome CT 18 as always.
Talking about cameras, this gentleman was also there
Geoffrey Goddard with (I believe) his beloved Leica
in hand.
Another thing that was new was the unique drive-
through pits
but some things was the same as last year.
The car that Bob built came back as did
Barbro and Ronnie.
How they thought that she would come up
to time the cars I don´t know.

A little quizz. What is this?

it's the nose bodywork off the 1975 version of the BRM201, when fitted with a full width front wing and side radiators.

Yes Peter!
It sits right here behind the front wing....
...and here are the side radiators.
Bob Evans was the driver but who were the mechanics?
If you want to build a model here are some
more close-up photos.
As always, if you want higher resolution copies
just mail me at christer.johanson@telia.com

In the light of the upcoming TNF Film Show featuring John Watson and
Paul Michaels I would like to revive this, by me, sadly neglected thread.
John was at Anderstorp in ´74 with the Goldie-Hexagon Brabham BT42.
It had a rather crude front wing.
Here it´s in the paddock. As always, do you recognize anyone?
If there´s interest I will upload more photos from the
Swedish GP in the coming weeks.
