Brabham Triumphs While Ferrari Avoids Disaster

Despite falling back and lacking wear and skill points, Lauda managed to finish the race in 3rd place.

Honda driver Richie Ginther and Brabham owner Jack Brabham stayed ahead of the pack and exchanged the number 1 and 2 positions throughout the race. Brabham secured the lead on the last lap and took the checkered flag. Ginther finished second followed by Lauda and Phil Hill.
