I have been searching the web for complete results of a couple British Sports Car Championship races: the 1965 Silverstone International event (round 4) and the 1971 RAC Croft (round 5). I can only seem to locate the top two or three finishers of the first one and I cannot find who finished 5th in the second one.

Any help would be appreciated. Cheers!

Thanks..

However, the MK site lists Hanson at 4th and no 5th place.
