Long Beach. April 1983.
This was to be the last year of Formula One at the Long Beach circuit. I was disappointed that they would not be back. I tried to take some photos but again they are not of the Nigel Watts quality !
Being a BMW mechanic at the time I was very interested in the turbo charged 4 cylinder 1500 cc BMW engine in a Brabham BT52.
Here is a photo of Nelson Piquet in Brabham # 5 leading Patrick Tambay in a Ferrari 126/C2 (Turbo ) # 27 on to the Shoreline Drive part of the circuit.
Nelson Piquet as viewed through the safety fencing, accelerating away.
