September 1968. The rescheduled Le Mans 24 hours. The June race was cancelled due to French industrial action. Posters for the September race are much more difficult to find than the June examples. Available from the Historic Car Art Gallery, UK. www.HistoricCarArt.net

The race is famed for the start and the two similar Porsche 917's of Siffert and Rodriguez banging wheels going into Eau Rouge, with Siffert coming out best.... The race set a record for the fastest ever road race in history, and the record would be broken twice more in successive years at the same circuit; and the eventual record stood for decades. Acrylics on paper. Size: Artwork 24 x 16cm. Mounted 34 x 27cm. NB: Neither the watermarks nor the '4' appear on the original art.

Speed icons - The 1976 F1 pack... Here the No.1 Ferrari of Niki Lauda leads No.11 McLaren of James Hunt, followed by Regazzoni, Depailler, Lafitte, Peterson and Mass.

A 3 times Formula One World Champion in 1959, 1960 and 1966. Still the only driver in history to win a world title in a car bearing his own name. Here are some pieces to pay tribute to Jack, including a print of him starting the 1967 Monaco Grand Prix, signed by him. A great champion and history maker. May he rest in peace.

A limited number of copies were personally autographed by Brabham and Surtees, the only surviving drivers of this group. Size: 30" x 22" Signed by Jack Brabham, John Surtees and the artist.
