The closest 1-2-3-4 you’ll ever see

Let a young Murray Walker take you through the closing stages of the 1969 Italian Grand Prix at Monza. With just a few corners to go until the chequered flag, no less than four drivers - Jochen Rindt, Jackie Stewart, Bruce McLaren and Jean-Pierre Beltoise - had a chance of victory. Who won? You’ll have to watch the clip to find out.

Old-school Monaco flavour

As Grid Crasher looks forward to this weekend’s Monaco GP, here’s some vintage footage of a classic last-lap battle between Jochem Rindt and Jack Brabham. Going into the final lap, Brabham was leading Rindt by a couple of seconds and so seemed assured of victory. But Brabham cocked up the last corner, going straight on into the straw bales (we’d want a bit more protection than that); Rindt sped past to claim a famous win, whilst the Aussie had to settle for second.
