[Other Sport] A thread full of iconic F1 cars

[pasty]

Not quite F1, but back when racing cars looked great. This is my father in law, Eugene Hall racing at Brands October 1955 in a Cooper MK VI

Right car wrong driver...

The greatest driver ever.

As driven by Graham in a fag packet - can we not have the proper version in BRG with the Master at the helm?

I don’t recall Mr Blobby driving in F1.

The beautiful 312t
How basic it looks.

My first memory of an F1 car - Stirling Moss

I was at this race in 1968 at the Nurburgring, it pissed down the whole day. This was a nice day out for my family!

Jackie Stewart in a Matra.

You only got to see the cars about every 8 minutes as they used the full track in those days

Just to annoy you again….this was a picture taken at Goodwood today - as part of the Graham Hill tribute parade!

There were plenty of other iconic F1 cars (and iconic non-F1 cars) to see there this weekend.

The parades at Goodwood include some of the most amazing cars from history

All the race cars are brand new now which kind of makes a mockery of the whole thing, still an impressive sight however.

F1 at its finest

My dad used to get picked up by Ken "Chopper" Tyrrell when Ken was racing at Goodwood. Ken was one of the nicest guys in racing. 6 wheel cars, who would have thought it!

Never a huge fan of F1 growing up, but my dad was. I did always love the look of the Brabham cars though, and the old Williams with Alan Jones driving. I still have my Scalextric versions of them up in my parents loft too I think.

I did some work for a guy a few years ago (car cleaning products) who had collaborated on it with Stirling Moss.
Tragically, he was murdered by his girlfriend a few months later, before we finished the job - but just before that he had very kindly got Stirling Moss to sign a photo of him racing for me....which my dad still has proudly framed & displayed in his study to this day.
