Right, got one lot of work* done, so I'll post a few more. Hasn't been very long since I did the first lot and the board isn't very busy, so I'll assume some potential interest and carry on. Just that I don't want to spam a load of pictures up if nobody wants 'em.

This picture - another F1 'might have been'. The talented Welshman Tom Pryce at Zandvoort in 1976, killed the next year at Kyalami.

Ah. It's in progress, but there's over 3.5gb of stuff that could be considered high resolution, and a lot of it's unsorted. Some kind chap's offered to host the whole lot, but I'm going to leave it until I've got it sorted out first.

In the meantime, there's a .rar at http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6H463STB which is 440mb of high-resolution images from the previous three threads I've done (contains some sports cars as well). None of the pictures in this thread are in that file.

Ronnie was killed following a startline accident at the 1978 Italian GP at Monza (435891). Whilst he appeared relatively OK having been dragged out of his burning car by James Hunt, Clay Regazzoni and Patrick Depailler, injuries to his leg resulted in his death of an embolism overnight.

Ten wins (one pictured here - his '74 win at Dijon-Prenois), the possibility of a championship title were it not for his untimely death, Ronnie was a loss both as Sweden's most successful F1 driver and as the nicest guy you would ever meet in an F1 paddock.

Anyways, Jacky Ickx. I've managed to find enough genuine high resolution images of him to not bother with 1280x960s.

I was in two minds about posting this but decided to go with it. This is Ickx on his way to his first win at Rouen, 1968. The burning car is Jo Schlesser, a forty year old being given his first crack at F1 that season (this was his third race). Schlesser lost it, hit the bank and the car burst into flames, and they were unable to get him out until they'd put the fire out, by which time he was dead.

So, yeah. Wasn't sure whether to post this one, but enjoying F1 from the 60s and 70s depends on recognising how dangerous it was, so... Yeah. Risky business.

Ickx (although a very personable sort of guy) has been variously accused of being lazy with regards to his development as a driver, lacking the will to be a champion, and of following the money rather than the best equipment. Regardless, he was very quick, very good in the wet, and (for whatever reason) never truly had the machinery to do his talent justice.

OK, hope that sorted out
