Great pics, Keith! Cheers to Joris too.
DROOOOOOOOOOLS!!!!!!
Wow, thank you Keith and Joris! Just love the Ferrari 312
Wow love these cars. Btw isnt the Ferrari 412T2 Bergers car and not Alesi’s?
Yes, the one shown has Berger’s number on it (28), but the comment referred to the car in general, not that particular chassis.
That 312B3’s a weird-looking thing though. Gives the lie to the idea only modern F1 cars are ugly!
that Ferrari 412T2 along with many of the other pictures are absolutely amazingly beautiful. thanks Keith
What happened to the rear wing of the Williams?
An homage to Derek Daly perhaps?
That Tyrrell brings back memories of childhood and no mistake. Mainly of Scalextric catalogues!
Maybe its becuase I wasn’t around in those times but to me 1970s F1 cars look ridiculously ugly, but its good to see that so many cars are kept in good condition for racing.
Mmmmmm….I LOVE looking at race cars,I don’t care what kind they are but,ALL F1 cars are beautiful.
Thanks for the pics Keith(and Joris),I can never get enough.
The 312T3 Ferrari at the top of the page - is that the Stig?
Thanks for all your nice reactions, I would not agree with Michael Counsell….these cars are more beauftiful than todays ones’ because they look less complicated!!
No Vertigo, that is not the Stig…there were more drivers with a white racing helmet. I think he did not yet have the time to get it painted.
Keith, is this an annual event? Does it have a website?Excellent pics!
