I was following F1 racing back then. Here is a bit of background that helped Honda win that race: Honda contracted with Lola Cars build a new chassis for the Honda engine, making the car considerably lighter than the predecessor chassis. That newly built lighter chassis made the difference for John Surtees to get the win in what turned out to be his final F1 victory.

True indeed. Affectionately known by those in the racing circus as the _'Hondola.'_
Is that maniac standing there in the middle of the track, flagging them off...? True miracle if he wasn't killed. Madness

Love those beautiful old cars. If only they weren't literal coffins on wheels.

I doubt they reported here Clark went early to the boxes, repaired and had recovered a full lap in disadvantage to the leaders jjust to abandon 3 laps before the end in first position . But it was an amazing achievment for a such small team.Have you ever imagined a full lap recovered ?

It was done by Alain Prost (Renault) at Kyalami in 1982. Though it should also be noted that Renault was one of the 3 top teams to have turbo-charged engines then - therefore perhaps - giving Prost a distinct advantage over most of his competitors. Especially at Kyalami.
