New high-resolution classic motor racing images thread.

Old one's at>>415835and contains 100 images.

MUs of a few images, but not many high-res;

*http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9mqslj2q 158.72mb
F1 1950-1959, 1937 GP season, some others.

*http://www.megaupload.com/?d=85s3y2s7 57.24mb
F1 1960-1969.

F1 1970.

*http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R09M8OID 87.41mb
F1 1984.

I'll carry on posting any images showing the innards of the cars, and suitable ones for wallpapers (a few of these are in the last thread).

Enjoy.

Sorry - I meant I'll carry on posting these until someone requests something else (ask any request - 'red cars with nice scenery' to 'Yardley liveried McLarens 1972 to 1974' - and I'll see what I can find).

These images aren't all from organised folders. If you want to ID an image which doesn't have it in the filename, ask me or use statsf1.com to look it up.

These pictures don't involve any serious accidents. I do have a few of that sort of thing that have come in torrents of images, and I've no interest in sharing them.

OP,
as long as you keep to one thread at a time most here will not consider it "spamming" in any way. I for one welcome our new 60s-to-80s-F1 overlord.

Also how about making a zip of your collection and up it to rapidshare? With or without low-res, I don't care. I care about the awesome cars...

Yeah, that's how I've got them organised. Problems are;
*There are loads of images which aren't identified, and I need to work through them and put them in folders.
*If I upload any one folder, it'll be hundreds of megs and will only include some high-res images. At the mo I'm trying to sort problem one, in order to collect a good stock of images (across different years) into one single file for you lot.

It's a Williams FW07E, prescursor to the FW08D that was, so quick around Donington they banned it before it got to a race track. Having two rear axles allowed for a loophole in the regs that allowed for a better setup for ground effects.

Right, I don't have time to sort out any big uploads at the moment I'm afraid - have a busy few weeks coming up and I just don't have time. Also, interest appears to be waning a bit, so I'll post one more lot and then leave it drop unless anyone else wants to request something specific.

Most of the pictures I have in high-resolution are, predictably, of the Ferraris, McLarens, Sennas and Laudas of the F1 world, so I've had a root around for some backmarkers.

1973 Monaco (David Purley, March 731).

1973 Mosport (Mike Hailwood, Surtees TS-14A).

Interesting one this. Mike Hailwood snatched a few good results but, especially in the 1973 season, was something of an 'also-ran'. He does, however, rank along with Giacomo Agostini and Valentino Rossi as the best bike racers ever, taking four 500cc, two 350cc and three 250cc World Championships, and twelve race wins at the Isle of Man TT. The Surtees TS14A he's driving around Mosport here wasn't much to write home about, but was designed by the team of John Surtees, the only man to take world championships on two wheels (four 500cc and three 350cc) and four (1964 with Ferrari).

Nevertheless, the combination of Hailwood and TS14A managed a best finish of seventh and ten retirements, and can be considered proper backmarkers. Just felt it was a bit harsh to post it as 'backmarkers' when that's being somewhat unfair to two very, very talented men.

1974 Brands Hatch (Arturo Merazrio Iso-Marlboro FW, Vittorio Brambilla March 741, Carlos Pace Brabham BT44).

This needs some clearing up too...

Pace and the BT44 were by no means back of the grid regulars. Admittedly more was expected of their '74 season, but he took a win in the 44B the next year. In front of him is Vittorio Brambilla - a true backmarker, but he took a victory in '75 at the rain-soaked Österreichring, and promptly got so excited he binned the car after crossing the finish line and had to return to the pits dragging the nose along behind him. Arturo Merzario, leading the group, never won a GP, but took sports car victories at the Spa 1000 kilometers and around the Targa Florio in '75 (got some high-resolution photos of that, actually). He also helped drag Lauda out of his burning car after his big crash at the Ring, and wore a cracking hat. So, y'know, kudos. And the car he's driving is the first Williams, and they went on to do pretty well for themselves.

Regardless, this is the battle for 17th place in the British GP, near the back. Again, thought it'd be a little harsh to label some talented individuals as cack.

1974 Mosport (Mike Wilds Ensign N174, Chris Amon BRM P201).

Poor Chris Amon. Easily the most talented driver to have never won a Grand Prix. Poor sod had immense amounts of bad luck, and poor judgement in picking race winning machines - like this bloody awful BRM. This pair of cars going round a (pretty shoddy looking) Mosport in qualifying are definitely a pair of backmarkers. Amon got on the last grid spot, and Wilds failed to qualify (as he did on five of the eight occasions he turned up for an F1 GP).

The only time Gérard Larrouse ever made it on to an F1 grid in four attempts. Once more, that's not a fair assessment of the guy - wins at the Sebring 12 hours, the (auto) Tour de France, the Nürburgring 1000kms and two Le Mans victories. The guy was a proper sports car ace, who went on to manage Renault's racing operation with great success.

But, yeah. He's a backmarker in this photo here.

1974 Zandvoort (Tim Schenken, Trojan T103).

Aussie Tim Schenken was a talented guy and took sports car victories (and one podium in F1), but never really made it in top-flight motorsports. He's now the race director for the (completely awesome) Australian V8 Supercars series.

The Trojan T103 he's driving here was, however, completely shit.

1975 Montjuïc Park (Lella Lombardi, March 751).

Lella Lombardi, the only points-scoring female F1 driver.

Well, "Point-s scoring" is misleading. She would have had a total of one point for her career, but the one sixth place she got was at the '75 Spanish GP (pictured) which was stopped after Rolf Stommelen's Hill GH1 lost its wing, went through the shoddy barriers and killed four people. As the race was pulled before half-distance only half points were awarded which means that Lella got 1/2 a point. She never finished in the points again, and whilst other racers have received 1/2 a point in similar circumstances, all of them scored additional points sometime else. Lella, then, has the lowest points tally for any points scoring driver.

1977 Zandvoort (Clay Regazzoni, Ensign N177).

Clay! Everybody loved Regga. The Swiss-born, honourary Italian, Super Mario Bros. look-a-like, comedian and general playboy was always a paddock favourite, and won races for Ferrari and Williams during his career. He drove twice ('77 and '80) for Mo Nunn's tiny Ensign team (he had his career-ending accident in an Ensign), though, which was never a front-runner.

The driver, Jochen Mass, didn't have a remarkable F1 record (although he scored one victory in the aforementioned shortened '75 Spanish GP), but was a remarkable closed-wheel peddler, with dozens of sports car victories, a European Touring Car Championship title, many podiums and one outright win at Le Mans.

Sorry if the last set got a bit wordy, but being a huge motorsports geek I didn't want to unfairly label drivers as crap (although I'm sure /hr/ is more concerned with pretty pictures of cars and wasn't that fussed).

I'm going to leave it there, unless anyone has any other requests (if you do I'll happily meet them). Like I said, I don't really have time at the minute to sort out some .rars, but if I get around to it I'll let /hr/ know.
