EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1967 Formula One World Championship, we witness a thrilling moment at the Belgian Grand Prix in Spa. The image showcases three legendary drivers battling it out on the track with intense determination and skill. Leading the pack is Mike Parkes of Great Britain, fearlessly steering his Ferrari 312 ahead of Chris Amon from New Zealand in another Ferrari 312 and John Surtees representing Great Britain driving a Honda RA273. The atmosphere is electric as these racing icons push their limits to secure victory. However, fate had other plans for Parkes as tragedy struck shortly after this picture was taken. In a heartbreaking turn of events, he crashed during the race, abruptly ending his illustrious Formula One career. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both triumph and adversity that encapsulates the world of motorsport. It captures not only the thrill and excitement but also highlights how quickly fortunes can change in this high-speed pursuit. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are transported back to that fateful day in June 1967 when these fearless competitors risked everything for glory on one of racing's most demanding circuits. Their courage and passion continue to inspire generations of motorsport enthusiasts worldwide.
