Part One. Years ago, a friend of mine had a Lotus Europa with a black nose badge. He joined Club Lotus, as was told Lotus fitted a black badge to cars for a period after they had lost a driver. My friends car was built just after Rindt was killed at Monza, so it had a ring of truth, so I have always believed this to be true-ish. (?)
Part Two. I have just seen a picture of Rindt, in the pits at Monza, in 1970, and the car has a black nose badge. If part one is accurate/true, for which driver would this have been for?
