The Making of Champions
AN ARTIST SIGNED LIMITED EDITION PRINT
Introduced in 1958, Formula Junior was the training ground for future Grand Prix drivers.
Jim Clark's Lotus 18 leads John Surtees at Goodwood, on March 19th 1960.
This was Clark's first single seater victory and also Surtees' first ever car race, driving
Ken Tyrrell's Cooper-Austin. Starting from pole position, he enjoyed a good dice with Clark,
who won the 10 lap race and recorded the fastest lap. This was also the first ever victory
for a Ford Cosworth engine.
An artist signed limited edition of only 500 prints, to celebrate the 50th anniversary
of Formula Junior.
£45.00 plus post & packing.
