In this print from the 1972 Belgian Grand Prix, we witness an intense battle between two racing legends. The race winner, Emerson Fittipaldi of Lotus 72D, finds himself under immense pressure from local favorite Jacky Ickx in his Ferrari 312B2. As they navigate the Circuit de Nivelles-Baulers, their skills and determination are on full display. Fittipaldi's victory is hard-fought as Ickx relentlessly pursues him with unwavering determination. The Brazilian driver showcases his exceptional driving prowess while expertly maneuvering through each turn to maintain his lead. Meanwhile, Ickx's fervent pursuit adds an extra layer of excitement to the race.
