Jim Muir and I camped at this race

  Here is a picture of our tent

Using Jim's Citroen's head lights that turned as the front wheels,
got us some interest from other campers.

Tyrrell had a new car. The type 001 was the first Formula 1 car to be constructed by Tyrrell. Stewart led from the start until a stub-axle broke on the new car.
