The roar of supercharged engines echoing across the lake . . . precipitation from the overhead trees converting understeer into oversteer in a heart beat...
straw stuck between Borrani spokes after a brush with hay bales . . . the white-hot stench of punished brake linings and crucified clutch plates. . green lawns, red cars, first track, bold drivers. This was Melbourne's Albert Park, 1953-58.
An unforgettable era of Maybach v Lago-Talbot and Maserati v Ferrari, Jones v Whiteford and Moss v Brabham.
Here are the race reports and results, but more than the fine print, Barry Green tells the evocative story behind the story ofAlbert Park, courtesy
of personal accounts, profiles and a gallery of 130 photos, most never before published.
