European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - March 20, 1968, Darmstadt, Hesse Paw 22 the stars and stripes wednesday March 20 racing Roundup Randy today we Start a new column for the Auto racing enthusiast who if he s anything like myself never gets enough current find detailed information on european racing. Well Supply As Many of those details As possible for the real Buff. And for the casual Follower the problem of where to see the races and when is hereby solved. The place to look is Here. Plans Are for this column to appear weekly so that you can schedule your race watching weekend accordingly. The concentration will be primarily on formula 1 and formula 2racing, plus the big prototypes and sports car races that Lead to the International manufacturers championship. The american racing scene will also be featured. So without further fuss let s move to the formula 1 Competition. Brands Hatch preview a attention last weekend was focused on the brands Hatch circuit near London for the race of although no counting toward the world formula 1 driving championship the race provided a preview of sorts for the coming european season. The St. Patrick s Day run augured Well for new Sealander Bruc Mclaren and his countryman. World Champion Denis Hulme As they finished first and third in Mclaren s spanking new m7as,powered by Ford. Mclaren enjoyed fantastic Success last year in the can am sports car series with his m6a cars Mclaren Takin first and Hulme second. Now with their Success continuing on the formula 1 circuit in the m7a debut designer Driver Mclaren and his compatriot appear a formidable team indeed. Both Are Superb Drivers and the m7as will provide the Means for them to display their virtuosity. A major Surprise at brands was the performance of Mexico Pedro Rodriguez in the new Brm v12. He finished second Only 17 seconds behind Mclaren. Rodriguez teammate Mike Spence qualified second fastest behind Mclaren to sit on the starting Grid along with Jackie Stewart in a French Matra Ford. Spence was running Well when he dropped out with mechanical troubles. Stewart finished sixth despite stopping for clutch repair. Sourm May be Back Strong this year while the Matra Ford appears a Tough challenger in its first year on the world Champion ship Trail. Another mechanical casualty was sex world Champion Graham Hill who went out when a drive Shaft on his Lotus Ford broke. Jim Clark did not enter. Many experts favor the Lotus team of Clar Kand Hill to win this season s championship but mechanical prob lems apparently remain to be solved. Last year s Winner american Dan Gurney remained in califor Nia preparing his Eagle for the summer s Campaign. Ferrari meanwhile showed up at brands with three Beautiful new cars 48-valve, 12-Cylinder machines for Chiris Amon Jackie icky and Andrea de Adamich. The Best Amon could do was fourth while icky took eighth. De Adamich crashed and burned his racer in practice. New Driver de Adamich fortunately was a very sparkling beginning for the Modena team. Silverstone next Stop England s Silverstone track is the setting april 27 for the next non championship formula 1 race before the european opener a Madrid on May 15. By that time perhaps Gurney will have his Eagle ready for the Challenge. His car has the Speed and with an Luck he still might fulfil his ambition of becoming world Champion in his own Eagle racer. After Silverstone we should have a fair idea of what s to come. Regardless i d put my chips on Jim Clark and the Lotus-Fordv-8. If Clark s Lotus is working properly no one can beat him. And if his car should falter teammate Graham Hill is almost a Brilliant. That is some one two team. It was Clark and Gilill who finished first and second at the Kya Lami track near Johannesburg South Africa in the first Champion ship race of the year Jan. 1. Jochen Kindt now with Jack Brabham. Took third. Rindt a highly competitive Driver should return to the top standings with a reliable race car and the Brabham repel y-8 has a big reputation in the reliability department. As things look now it should be an exciting season so polish Tho e binoculars and get ready.
