There have also been numerous non-championship Formula 1 races most notably the Race of Champions in 1967 which was won by Dan Gurney in the Eagle-Weslake T1G..

Geat circuit to race on with corners that you can literally throw the car into. Unfortunately I am still struggling for pace, although almost error free. It would have been uneventful if Dave hadn't needed a reset. It took him a few laps to catch up, several more to work a pass & then a fierce battle for last place.

I seemed to be creeping up on Billy, but very very slowly. I could hear him, but was many laps until I could see him for a fraction of a second. When I suddenly caught up, something had clearly happened. I figured that he'd had to reset, but he didn't dive in the pits on the first completed lap. However, his car with cold tyres/heavy fuel, didn't seem to be particularly slow anywhere. On passing the pits the 2nd time, it became clear the reason for the not-dismal pace was he did not reset at all! It took a number of laps before he left a lot of room at T1 & I was able to edge past. It really made those 25 laps or so, quite exciting; so thanks for that - would have been rather boring otherwise from back there/alone. Cheers, Dave. |
