Breathtaking, Andi.

A perfect interpretation of a classic epoch I recall so well. The car's beautiful lines have rarely been bettered in my view.

Also interesting to relate that Jim had two sets of tyres for the '65 season - one for wet weather and one for dry. What would the great Scottish driver make of tyres today lasting 14 laps?

Please don't polish it, Andi. Chapman never did. Polish? Too heavy.
 
Andi's superb 33 above puts me in mind of the equally beautiful Lotus 48 of 1968.

Is there a case for arguing, therefore, that we slotters have neglected Formula 2 for too long?

There are many wonderful F2s, from both the pre and post wing eras; a pity to eschew 'em, eh?
