A race blighted by lap scoring errors and inconsistencies. Marshals and team managers then assembled for a three-hour meeting during which they tried to reconstruct the race from scratch by manually adding each individual lap time together.
The footage at 0:34 shows how badly damaged was François Cevert's Tyrrell after the collision with Jody Scheckter's McLaren. Sadly, it was to be the Frenchman's final Grand Prix.
“My wife was the best keeper of lap charts, it was not unusual for other teams and sometime race organizers to double-check what they had against hers. We went over and over what she had for weeks after that race. There’s no doubt that Emerson won, with Jackie Oliver probably second and me probably third. We thought, initially, that I had won but when we checked and rechecked, I was in third.” - Howden Ganley

Fantástico vídeo! A expressão de Emerson diz tudo. Feliz na mesma? Haviam de facto coisas mais importantes... Eram mesmo outros tempos!!!
