Racing into the history books! This stunning photo captures the thrilling action of the 1971 French Grand Prix at Paul Ricard, Le Castellet, France. On July 2nd-4th, 1971, Rolf Stommelen's Surtees TS9 Ford took to the track in pursuit of victory. Although ultimately finishing in 11th position, this shot showcases his determination and skill as he navigates a hairpin turn with precision.
The rear wheels are visibly struggling for grip as Stommelen expertly corrects for oversteer, sending up a plume of smoke and exhaust fumes into the air. The image is a testament to the raw power and intensity of Formula One racing during its golden era.
LAT Photographic's iconic capture freezes this moment in time, allowing us to relive the excitement and drama of that unforgettable day. With its unique perspective from behind Rolf's car, we're treated to an intimate view of his driving skills as he battles for every split second on track.
