Great shot! Fangio had his epic race at the Ring the following year. He put some manners on Ferrari, Collins and Hawthorn!
Nice reference! It was an absolute masterpiece — Fangio’s comeback after a disastrous pit stop, breaking the lap record nine times in pursuit of the two Ferraris, and overtaking both Collins and Hawthorn in the final laps to win. At age 46! No wonder he called it "la mejor carrera de mi vida." A true display of genius, courage, and mechanical sympathy. Image Unavailable, Please Login
"We thought he was too far behind. We weren’t even checking our mirrors anymore. Then suddenly, that red Maserati was there — and already gone again. Fangio was driving like the devil was on his heels." Peter Collins, Scuderia Ferrari driver Image Unavailable, Please Login
Absolutely correct. One year earlier… Monza 1956. Believing his time would come, Peter Collins gave up his car—and the championship—to help Fangio secure his fourth title. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Kodachrome was amazing. I just bought a book of airliner images from the '50s, all shot on Kodachrome, and the depth of the color after all the years is fantastic.

Ronnie Peterson at the 1977 Monaco GP in the Tyrrell P34 — same car as in the shot above, but this time with its "clothes" on. Sadly, the brakes weren’t quite as well put together: DNF. Image Unavailable, Please Login

Wasn't that when Brundle asked Ozzie if he had the dogs with him and he replied, no they are at home shi**ing.
Clay Regazzoni,Ferrari 312B. 1971 Dutch Grand Prix, Zandvoort Look at that safety harness; no crutch straps, no quick release buckle and it looks like it's been used for ever. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Interesting observation Trev, and quite strange. Back in 1971, even in Formula Fords, we had 6 point safety harnesses with a thick and very secure buckle closure/release over a thick leather pad. The safety harness in Rega's Ferrari wouldn't have passed a SCCA pre-race tech inspection.
