To be fair, the French wiki story is far more comprehensive than the English wiki version. As ever, though, the Google translator throws up a few gems:

I tried to make the English wiki version more comprehensive but had a lack of source material. I have an Autosport from early 1972 with a progress report written by a certain Mr. Nye, but other than that I don't have much. I prefer to use printed media as much as I can - the wiki gods tend to prefer it.

I have a question. Who or what is Darnvall? I've seen them mentioned before (and I see Forix lists them in the official team name), but I'd have half-expected them to have a logo on the car if they were a sponsor. I'd have assumed (quite wrongly) that Capricorn were the principal sponsor.

Not strictly a photograph but I thought people might like to see this cartoon of the team, drawn by an e-mail friend of mine from Western Australia. Rod Waller is a clever and talented cartoonist, don't you think?

Readers of Racing Car News were often blessed with Rod's humour and art back in the days of our youth...

Maybe you should get him to post some of his stuff here, Barry? Start a whole new thread.

I don't know whether the following pictures from the Austrian GP 1972 have been shown here before or not.
