As part of Speedcafe.com’s Brabham Week, presented by Pirtek, we have worked with the Brabham family to develop a daily gallery.
Today’s third gallery looks at the later years of Sir Jack’s F1 driving career, including a shot of a win at Monza in 1967 and his last GP victory in South Africa in 1970.
It also extends into the following decade and includes a shot of the Holden Torana from Bathurst in 1978 which he drove to sixth place with Brian Muir.
There is a terrific shot of Sir Jack with Graham Hill and Denny Hulme, who drove a Brabham to the 1967 world championship.

There are also period shots of Sir Jack with Jochen Rindt, John Surtees and Bobby Unser and a later snap of him with Juan Manuel Fangio with a helicopter.
