Paul Hawkins, One of the first blokes to race for Holden through their "Dealer team" goes for a swim at Monaco.
He's listed as finishing in 10th place , albeit also as retiring, having completed 79 of the 100 laps.
His last F1 race was at the Nurburgring in the same year.

Nope, first time I had seen any construction imagery of the Green Hell.
I knew the story behind it all but to see how it was done is pretty impressive given the era it was built.

That's a brilliant shot, but I can't place it. Amon.. First thought it was Longford 68 but it's a Formula 1 car not a Dino V6 and it's wrong for the Viaduct.

I think Nurburgring 68?

Found this on FB, forgotten how many sparks they threw up in their day.
Andrea de Cesaris and Stefan Johansson go toe to toe in 1987.
