Donington 1939 - and one of my favourites of Dad's photographs. Not sure if it is the same car below in 2000 - rear view mirror is definitely different. Driver seems to be sitting a lot lower too. Aren't we lucky? Soccer players or rugby players can't really replay or recreate the past glories, but we can still see (and hear) the cars that thrilled our fathers.
1938 Alta
Donington Museum Alta GP1, taken in 2002. Is it still there or has that also disappeared?
As mentioned at least once before, Cooper Bristols are so photogenic as you can really see the drivers working. Not like the modern F1 cars that is for sure.
Roddy MacPherson - who else could it be!
