#OnThisDay in ’74 Carlos Reutemann won the #SouthAfricanGP in a Brabham BT44: one of the great car/driver combos of that glorious #F1 decade.

#OnThisDay in ’70 the #SouthAfricanGP was all about 2 men in their 40s. Jack Brabham (Brabham; pic), a month shy of his 44th birthday, scored his 14th & final #F1 GP victory, while 41-year-old Graham Hill returned to F1 after a huge shunt at Watkins Glen the previous year. (1/2)

The ’77 #SouthAfricanGP will be remembered not for Niki Lauda’s fine win but for the awful deaths of 27-year-old Shadow ace Tom Pryce (pic) & 19-year-old marshal Frederik Jansen van Vuuren, who crossed the track in front of Pryce, who tragically couldn’t avoid him. (2/2)

#OnThisDay in ’77 Niki Lauda won the #SouthAfricanGP - his first #F1 GP win since his death-defying accident at NΓΌrburgring & subsequent miracle recovery the year before. The car he drove to victory - the Ferrari 312T2 - is a proper beauty, isn’t it? (1/2)

#OnThisDay in ’80 Jean-Pierre Jabouille, who’d put his beautiful Renault RE20 on the pole the day before, led the #SouthAfricanGP until thwarted by a puncture on lap 62, leaving his Renault team-mate RenΓ© Arnoux to take the win. Great pic by Nigel Snowdon.

Can it really be 51 years since local hero Jody Scheckter (Tyrrell) won the #SouthAfricanGP, just 3.74sec ahead of Carlos Reutemann (Brabham)? Yes, it happened #OnThisDay in ’75. Pic: pretty car, Scheckter’s Derek Gardner-designed Tyrrell 007.

The story of the size, shape & configuration of wings has been an #F1 odyssey for a generation - & here’s an example of one of its most lurid chapters. #OnThisDay in ’69 Jackie Stewart raced this Matra MS10 to #SouthAfricanGP victory. High wings were banned a couple of GPs later.

#OnThisDay 45 years ago Carlos Reutemann won the #SouthAfricanGP for Williams. Had it been counted as a world championship-status #F1 GP, as seemed possible at one time, he’d have been ’81 F1 world champion. But it wasn’t, more’s the pity, & it still hurts.

#OnThisDay in ’67, at Kyalami, Pedro RodrΓ­guez won an #F1 GP for the first time, driving this Cooper T81. #AnorakFact: it was the first time that Kyalami had been used for a world championship-status F1 #SouthAfricanGP, & it was the Cooper team’s 16th & final F1 GP win.

Matt Bishop: How about a Christmas GP in Africa? After all, F1 has done it before South Africa's Prince George circuit hosted the dramatic 1962 F1 title showdown between Jim Clark and Graham Hill in late December. It's time the World Championship returned to Africa, so why not make...

Remembering John Love, born #OnThisDay 101 years ago, in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, when the country had been called Southern Rhodesia. Pic: a fine driver, he nearly won the ’67 #F1 #SouthAfricanGP, but he ended up an unlucky 2nd owing to an unscheduled fuel stop.

Remembering Trevor Blokdyk, born #OnThisDay in ’35. A ’50s speedway ace in the UK, he gave it up for cars, starting one #F1 GP, the ’63 #SouthAfricanGP, in a Cooper fitted with a 4-pot Maserati engine (pic). He raced for a bit more then returned to Transvaal & became a farmer.
