From Sierra Nevada, Spain, where we'll also be watching the meteors tonight
And here's Graham Hill's gorgeous, Tony Rudd-designed BRM at Warwick Farm the same year. Polychromatic green with flame-orange nose band. Screaming 2-litre V8. Doesn't get much better.
Just found this lovely pic taken by my mate Paul Hobson at Warwick Farm, 1967. That's Denny Hulme lounging on the grass left of pic; then Leo Wybrott, who was Jim Clark's Team Lotus mechanic in that year's Tasman; and then, of course, Denny's Brabham-Repco V8 (with the new central exhaust outlets)
The 11th at El Valle, Spain. Tee on the right. Serious golf hole.
Jack Windsor a few years ago, trying to hit the poor guy catching the balls
Dawn en route to the Bridgestone Cup golf tournament yesterday. A nice win for Jack Windsor over a 68-strong field.
The elegance of the Ralph Bellamy/Ray Stokoe McLaren M19A, pictured here at the 1971 Silverstone International Trophy, was matched only by Denny's signature - delivered here by fountain pen - and Michael Turner's original logo. Photo: Richard Windsor

Here I am, just about to take Alain Prost’s Renault turbo for a spin at Ricard. Carlos Reutemann kindly provided one of his helmets for the occasion.

Lovely up here in the mountains. Rally Granada. Dust and car control.
Great to be at Rally Granada today and to watch the very talented Roope Korhonen in action with his GR Yaris Rally2
Hard to beat the artistic beauty of the Sid Taylor/Denny Hulme livery, fonts and graphics. A great example of simplicity triumphing over complexity.
I took this pic of my mate shortly after he won Macau in ‘83. We watched the race on TV for while before going into Reading for a bite to eat.
Dexter's a bit confused by all the rain we're having here in Spain. Loves barking at the thunder, though.
David McKay’s brand new Ferrari 330 P4 V12 Spyder being unpacked after its journey by ship to Australia in late 1967. It would be driven brilliantly by Chris Amon in the support races for the upcoming Australian leg of the Tasman Championship.
Lovely Buick being loaded up for a classic event in Spain this morning
Congrats to Joss Verstappen on his P3 overall and his class P2 in the East Belgian Rally today. What a weekend for the family team!
...meanwhile, wearing the same livery as Max's Ferrari 296 GT3 - and not too far away from the 'Ring - Jos Verstappen's Rally2 Skoda is currently lying an excellent P4 in the East Belgian Rally.
Lovely evening where we are. Ryder Cup (Go Europe!) and Max-at-the-Ring to look forward to.
Having a look at the bays and mountains near us this scorching Sunday. We'll be back in time to watch the final round of the Travelers', of course.
