Ferrari 312 1st Belgium 1966 #6 Surtees by SilverLine
On
12 June 1966 the Belgian Grand Prix, the second round of the Formula One
season, was held at Spa Francorchamps, following Jackie Stewart's victory at
Monaco in the opening race. Lorenzo Bandini also lined up on the grid in the
Ferrari 246 F166. The race started under a rain-laden sky: Surtees immediately
took the lead, but halfway through the first lap, near Burnenville the group
found a real storm ahead. The British Ferrari driver came out unscathed,
Bonnier, Spence, Siffert and Hulme, on the other hand, ended up off the track,
while Rindt, after a frightening spin at the ‘Masta’ chicane, managed to avoid
the barriers and continued the race. Of the 18 cars that started, only seven
crossed the finish line on the first lap. The race ended in victory for Surtees, who scored his
third “hat trick” of his career, sharing the podium with Jochen Rindt and
Lorenzo Bandini. Points also went to Brabham and Ginther.
