Does any member have a an official copy of the individual race lap times fort the 1964 Netherlands Grand Prix.

 

I am aware that individual times were given in 1964 edition of Autocourse Annual , but I would like to see the official result times

Good luck... Other than for Watkins Glen, I do not remember seeing many of what would be the "official copy" of the lap chart for a WCGP from that era being offered as such. Do you perceive an issue with the one in Autocourse?

I know it is a very long shot to try and obtain official individual race lap times from Grand Prix's before the computerised timing of races.

 

The reason why I am looking is that the Autocourse individual race laps shows Dan Gurney as recording his race fastest lap on lap 6 as 1'32.8".

 

That is the same time as Jim Clark race fastest lap of 1'32.8", also recorded on lap 6.

 

However all the reference books I have state fastest lap of race was recorded by Jim Clark. None of them mention that the time was equalled by another driver.

 

It would be nice to obtain a document that confirms Dan Gurney's time is correct
