Hope too many of y'all don't mind, but since I've just finished
playing with some stuff I shot back in 1973, I decided to take you youngin's back in time......
The Year: 1973
The Place: Watkins Glen, New York
The Event: The 1973 USGP...the last race of the '73 season...
Going into the event, JYS had already clinched his 3rd WDC.
This was my 2nd GP I had attended, and was Patty's first. The Glen offered 4 rows of seats on top of the pits ( $100per for all 3 days) and I saved up my nickles and dimes so that I could treat my wife...... we ended up sitting between the March (Jarier) and Tyrrell (JYS, Cevert, & Amon) pits. Since the tickets were expensive, you will notice that most of the pics are from the same angle...I had a bad case of cement legs.
Tragedy hit on Saturday morning....Cevert was killed going up the Esses...... JYS will retire Saturday evening. AS for the race..... Ronnie was on pole, Lole (Reutemann) was 2nd, Hunt was 3rd on the grid. Ronniw would win with Hunt and Lole swapping positions..... Also, that weekend would see the world change as the Yom Kippur war began with the Arab Oil Embargo to quickly follow.....
Anyway, here are pics of that weekend....... there are a lot of them...YOU HAVE been WARNED......
Ferrari: Little Art.....I can't find the pics I took of Art without his front and rear wings.....his rear wing fell off and the team then took of the front...

ISO Marlboro: Ickx had a 1-off with the team after driving for Ferrari and McLaren...... Howden Ganely in the other car

Tyrrell: JYS speaking to designer Derek Gardner.....Chris Amon drove a 3rd Tyrrell

March: Team car driven by "Jumper" Jarier....Lord Hesketh ran a private car for Hunt...... Mike Beutler also ran a private entry.

The BRM Team: Niki, Clay, & JP Beltoise

Team Surtees: Carlos Pace and Jochen Mass

McLaren: Back in these days, McLaren was a Yank favorite....raced in CanAm, Indy, and run by an American, Teddy Mayer...plus Yank Peter Revson drove for the team....
A 3 car team this weekend... Revson, Hulme (aka "Bear") and Jody (aka "The Baby Bear")
Revson and Mayer

The Bear and The Baby Bear

Brabham: Lole, Wilson Fittipaldi, and John Watson...the Watson pic was taken right after Cevert's death.....

The UOP Shadow:..Oliver and Follmer.....

Lotus: Emmo's last race with the team as he is heading off to McLaren......Ronnie won flag to flag....

Ronnie........

Last 2 pics...from the podium....... Besides James and Ronnie on the podium....Barbo (Ronnies wife), Lord Hesketh, and Colin Chapman.....

This little history lesson is over...class dismissed !!
ciao y'all
murph

Mechanic: So yeah... I mean that's part of what we do, we design competitive racing cars, that's our passion. We like a challenge, I mean, no doubt that this year's been incredibly tough for most of us, but, I guess, Jenson's win has given us this extra boost to be even more successful next year and do Honda proud
Kid#1: 何を言っていますか。
Kid#2: あなたの鼻はとても大きいですね！
Kid#3:私もレーシングカーを運転したいですよ。

FIRST CHEQUERED FLAG FOR THE PS05
MONTE CARLO, MONACO, May 22, 2005 – The 2005 Monaco Grand Prix didn’t yield the result that been hoped for, but the Minardi F1 Team will nevertheless leave the Principality substantially encouraged by the events of the weekend. At the top of the list, Christijan Albers’ 14th-place finish in today’s event marked the first Formula One race finish for the Minardi Cosworth PS05, introduced at the recent San Marino Grand Prix, and indicates that the hard-working Faenza squad has made substantial progress with vehicle reliability. In addition, the pace of Albers and team mate, Patrick Friesacher, both in qualifying and in the race, shows the team is beginning to unlock some of the undoubted potential of the new car. Driving in their first-ever Monaco Grand Prix, both Minardi drivers had eventful races today. Albers spun at the hairpin on lap 23, but eventually took the chequered flag after a gritty drive, while Friesacher, on a two-stop strategy as opposed to his team mate’s single stop, put in a series of impressive laps up to his scheduled pit stop on lap 24. Unfortunately, the handling of his car had deteriorated after the stop, with the result that the young Austrian had an encounter with Monaco’s notoriously unyielding barriers that caused his retirement from the race.
CHRISTIJAN ALBERS Best lap: 1 min 20.237 secs Position: 14th
“I had a good start and got ahead of Patrick, but I left him some space, as he was running a two-stop strategy and I was on one stop, and it wouldn’t have been fair to hold him up. After that, during the first few laps, I experienced a problem with the rear of the car when I was braking out of the tunnel, but we were able to solve that a couple of laps later. I was then able to race at a good pace, considering the fuel load, but started losing overall grip, even in the tunnel. The situation was the same after the stop, but then, in the last 11 or 12 laps of the race, the problem disappeared and I was again able to run at a good pace. We now need to look through the data to understand what was happening, and improve the car for Nurburgring. Obviously, I had that spin in the hairpin, and I still don’t understand what caused it, so we will have to examine that as well. Fortunately, I managed to keep the engine running after the spin, and was able to continue. It was a shame for the other drivers who became involved in the incident, but unfortunately, that is racing, and particularly racing here in Monaco.”
PATRICK FRIESACHER Best lap: 1 min 19.037 secs Position: DNF
“I made a good start to the race, and the car was working really well right up to the time when the Safety Car came out. After it went in, though, the back end of the car felt really strange, almost like there was a puncture. On the lap I spun, I just touched the brakes at the chicane and the rear snapped away. It’s a real shame, because up to that point our race pace had been good and the car was working well. I also feel badly for the guys, who, once again, have put in a huge amount of work this weekend, but at least Christijan got to the finish, and that, plus our qualifying performances this weekend, are encouraging.”
PAUL STODDART, Team Principal, Minardi Cosworth
“Considering this marks the first Formula One finish for the Minardi Cosworth PS05, and we were ahead of our nearest rivals on race pace, I really feel that serious progress has been made this weekend. Despite both cars struggling to maintain grip during certain stages of the race, Christijan soldiered on to achieve a well-deserved finish, while Patrick, having had his best weekend in Formula One thus far, sadly did not get to see the chequered flag. The whole team has put in an outstanding effort this weekend, and it’s now onwards and upwards to the next race.”

Pitpass are claiming that the car at the launch in Melbourne was a PS05 chassis. I was under the impression that it was just a livery unvailing with the new car being unvailed at Imola, any body else know anything?

http://www.pitpass.com/fes_php/pitpass_feature_item.php?fes_action=&fes_art_id=23758&fes_page=2
Especially towards the end...............

http://www.pitpass.com/fes_php/pitpass_news_item.php?fes_art_id=23750
Just saw this on Pitpass.... there is no author given......
Another view on Mr. Stoddart and the events of Friday entitled "An Own Goal for Stoddart?"

pretty quickly, i would say...and no, there have never had been any eyeties investors for minardi...p.s giving up will spell the deathknell for minardi...
plenty of billionaires waiting to grab miinardi for a song and they are no charities who would want to keep faenza in the fold...
goto: http://www.pitpass.com/fes_php/pitpass_news_item.php?fes_art_id=23750
and you'll see how pretty quickly this can happen...

Pizza will drive a Williams.
Albers will drive the 2nd Minardi.
