A Moment of Triumph - Nelson Piquet and Gordon Murray at the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken during the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix at Zolder, Belgium, on May 7-9, the intensity and focus of three-time Formula One World Champion Nelson Piquet (Brazil, b. 1952) are palpable as he poses with his Brabham BT50-BMW car's designer, Gordon Murray (Britain, b. 1948). The race, held on May 9, 1982, saw Piquet finish in a commendable fifth position. The image captures the essence of the dynamic duo, with Piquet donning his iconic helmet adorned with the Brazilian flag, and Murray, the visionary designer behind the Brabham team's innovative BMW-powered cars, looking on with pride. The team's collaboration resulted in the groundbreaking BT50, which featured a unique fan-assisted engine cooling system, a design that revolutionized Formula One racing. The 1982 Belgian Grand Prix was a pivotal moment in Piquet's career, as he continued to establish himself as a formidable force in the sport. The image encapsulates the spirit of competition, innovation, and teamwork that defined the era of Formula One racing in the early 1980s. This photograph, a 35mm transparency with the reference number 82BEL54 from Motorsport Images, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world of Formula One was on the cusp of significant change. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Piquet and Murray's partnership and their contributions to the sport.
