Season 38 1965F1 – Round 7 – Professionals - Sandown 1968
Round 7 finds us in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. To be precise in the suburb of Springvale, approximately 25 kilometres (16 mi) south east of the city centre. Sandown Raceway was first opened in 1962. The opening meeting, held on 11 and 12 March, featured the Sandown International Cup, which was contested by world-famous international drivers including Jack Brabham, Jim Clark, Stirling Moss, Bruce McLaren and John Surtees. A second Sandown International Cup was held in 1963. The race that became the Sandown 500 was held for the first time in 1964. The circuit hosted its first Australian Touring Car Championship race in 1965. A round of the annual Tasman Series was held at Sandown from 1964 to 1975. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s the race meetings continued to attract international stars along with the best of Australia's drivers. Australia's traditional Holden/Ford rivalry really surfaced at the track in the late 1960s and through the 1970s with drivers such as Norm Beechey, Ian Geoghegan, Allan Moffat, Bob Jane, Colin Bond and Peter Brock and continues to the present day. From 1968 to 1980 almost every major touring car race held at the circuit was won be those driving either a Holden or a Ford.
