Graham Hill / Richie
Ginther -- Rover BRM Turbine (1)
Hill
and Ginther would
have finished
8th if the Turbine
Car was an official entrant. LeMans was well known for peculiar
regulations, and one of them excluded this car from the formal competition,
hence its "00" number. Comments? Please
email me!
(1-22-11) From Ed Matsuishi:
"The car won a special prize that was
given for the first turbine powered car to complete the race with at least
a 200 km/hr average." |
