Four teams sought victory at this year’s British Grand Prix. Team Lotus filled out the front row with Andretti on pole and Nilsson next to him. Ferrari and McLaren’s top drivers secured the second row followed by BRM’s sole driver and McLaren’s number two. Ferrari driver Regazzoni was the last man on the grid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lotus drivers rocketed off the start finish line with Lauda in hot pursuit. Hunt began experiencing engine problems that would haunt him all day. Regazzoni skidded at the start. Ashely drove aggressively to lock-in 4th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the first lap, team Lotus formed a wall that the Ferrari driver could not overcome. Andretti earned the first lap point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the second lap, Andretti damaged his engine, but Team Lotus persevered, driving in tandem and sharing their slipstream. Hunt’s McLaren gave up the ghost ending his day. The broken McLaren was unceremoniously towed into the pits. Reggezoni spun while avoiding a collision twice during the race. Nilsson grabbed the second lap point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
