on the right I mean, looks like Piers Courage on the left................
Gary C
great pix Barry! But what's the last one??
Gary C
the Lotus 58? There was only one of them....
Gary C


I had to get the full info on this picture from Mr.Nye himself. This is picture is in my collection, so copyright is with The Supercharged Collection. It's Giulio Borsari in the fuel-injected Ferrari 156/63 at Silverstone in 1963. Taken from the original 2 and a quarter inch square negative, remember those??
Gary C
........don't think so...
Gary C
thanks, Rob!
Gary C
blimey! Did he have any more??
Gary C
Paul M -- any more pics from your Viewmaster?? I used to have just one disc with mine, 'Wonders Of The Deep' !!
Gary C
'Is that Bob Dance beside Pace in the Brabham?' It certainly is!!
Gary C
doesn't look like Jacky to me either!
Gary C
no way is it Robin Herd !!
Gary C
Blimey!! That's a previously un-published photo of the Connew !!
Gary C
'Brabham BT36-1, leased for the first two races in 1972 by Graham Hill.'
Which was the other race?? It wasn't, by any chance, Crystal Palace, was it?
Gary C
nice piccies Marty. Poignant ones of Cevert and a nice couple of the Lotus 72's too.
Gary C
why am I getting 'mage not available' for Alan's pictures ??
Gary C
notice the Frank Williams chevron on the toolbox lid....
Gary C
well, there's certainly Derek Bell & Hans Stuck in there....
Gary C
no pics for me, either
Gary C
yes, obviously David Niven.
Gary C
These are just brilliant photos, the grid shot particularly sums up the atmosphere of early 60's racing. Brilliant stuff.
Gary C
looks like a 76 car to me........

Nor me. And why should Jack have been nattering to a Matra driver?

I've had a look at the entry list for that race, and if we assume it was a Brabham driver (Jack doing a bit of "customer care") and counting out obvious candidates such as Rindt, Gardner, Rees, Raby etc, we are left with Robin Widdows (I confess I haven't got a clue what he looks like), Paul Blum, Bruno Frey and Gerhard Krammer. So who was it?
Not Widdows,anyone have photos of the others?
Rob29
Just 2 red crosses here.

16 ofthe 25 drivers entered for the 64 British GP seem to be there. Presumably Trevor Taylor was not invited to the photocall as his yellow suit would spoil the effect?

My first image! smile.gif


Unfortunately, it's only a picture, you can't hear the DFV gently idling at 2500rpm...

Thanks for posting those pics Henk. I've always had a soft spot for that era of F1 cars. They may not have been the prettiest, but I always think they looked the fastest - if that makes sense.

Can anyone fill me in a little on this car? I searched the 'net briefly and couldn't find anything about it, but iI confess the first three letters have me very intrigued. tongue.gif
My little googling attempt brought up this interesting page It seems your thoughts on the first 3 letters were on the mark.

Yeh, certainly doesn't look like a 411.

There also appears to be a different frontal treatment and different rear wing(s) in the images at http://www.racing70s.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/...erman/vw411.htm than the example in swintex's pic. Guess it went through a few changes in its lifetime.

Frank de Jong
Great idea.
I do have a few prints and some more slides (1977-1980), which are difficult to scan right now. I must have a picture of an oversteering Porsche 934 in Tarzan corner somewhere...
Frank de Jong
I'll try and move this thread a little away from F1.

A Lola T492 Sports 2000 from 1979:


and a picture from UNDER the paddock (a first, I believe):

This picture was made on saturday night between practice and race on a European circuit. It rained, and instead of staying in our tent the whole evening me and my pal decided to move to the tunnel under the circuit. It had some light and was dry. We brought a few beers and our favourite racing-car related game and had a nice time.
Anyone out there who knows which circuit this was?
Frank de Jong
Not Assen, not Spa. Go on...
Frank de Jong
Zolder is correct clap.gif

Are all of these excellent photos from Zandvoort? The first photo is definitely 1979, but Watson is in a M28C and he had an M29 for Zandvoort...


[B]Stuck and ?...
Manfred Winkelhock ?


Rob [/B]


It's Winkelhock allright, but I'm puzzled by the venue - Stuck never won a DRM race at Zandvoort, and Zolder 1978-1980 does not fit the bill either. Could be an F2 race too, but I'm not sure whether Stuck and Winkelhock ever raced F2 in the same race...

Is that an ATS decal on Stuck's suit? Then it should be 1977 or 1979.
Frank de Jong
Didn't think about procar, but your guess must be right - Zandvoort 1979: 1. Stuck 3. Winkelhock.
Frank de Jong
My 2 cents: it looks like the first version of the DN8, which only had its debut at Zandvoort, so after the German and Austrian GP.
It has no starting numbers so perhaps this is the shakedown of the new car.
Frank de Jong
Brilliant!
philhitchings

jonathon can you bring the old bridge back please! It would make it so much easier for us pedestrians.

Lovely image BTW up.gif
Buford
Formula One cars in the dirt? Where are the fat cat garages and Nazi security? How did they ever put on a race with so littly luxury?

Is this the chassis Schumacher has just bought?

I think yes. Schumacher used chassis No. 191/5 at Spa and Moreno the same chassis at Monza.
