Title: UKGPL Season 38 (Spring 2021) 1965 F1 Professionals - Killarney - Feb 23 Post by: AndyL on February 19, 2021, 12:04:33 PM +0000 Season 38 1965F1 – Round 4 – Professionals - Killarney
Yes, for those who also take part in the MixOW series, it's Killarney again. Not the one in Ireland, nor the suburb of Johannesburg, but the one near Cape Town named afer a nearby hotel. It first saw F1 cars racing in 1960, when a mixed field was beaten by the two F1 Porsche 718s driven by Stirling Moss and Jo Bonnier. In 1962, Killarney held a non championship F1 race called the Cape Grand Prix. After swapping the lead many times, Trevor Taylor beat Jim Clark over the line in their Lotus 21s. Strong winds blew sand onto the track and several engines were damaged. F1 racing never returned, but the track is still in use today. This track was recreated for GPL by UKGPL's own Francesco Molteni.

Just policy. A first-lap shunt and I may/may not have reset but that late in the going, no. Frankly, as a PRO event, I do not even abide having resets enabled.
If I'm not very much mistaken, this was Tom Johnson's first GP65 event with the UKGPL and he brings his mount home in P2. Well done, TJ! :) Edit: Question... Our PRO race ran off with 31 laps. The AM's the full 33. ??? Title: Re: UKGPL Season 38 (Spring 2021) 1965 F1 Professionals - Killarney - Feb 23 Post by: Cookie on February 24, 2021, 03:00:40 PM +0000 Question... Our PRO race ran off with 31 laps. The AM's the full 33. ??? Oups yes Doni, seems I mixed some facts, my fault sorry! Would you have won?
