The 1965 season in Formula 1: Great Britain once again tramples all the competition

The 1965 season in Formula 1: Great Britain once again tramples all the competition

The 60s of the last century in Formula 1 were completely subordinated to Great Britain. Their dominance is so undeniable both from a driver and team perspective. Alas, the most elite car race is so dynamic that even with the first starts in the following 1965, it becomes clear that nothing will be the same. After the triumph of the young John Surtees and Ferrari in 1964, the euphoria of the "black horses" never managed to carry over, leaving the battle for the more experienced drivers.

The calendar in 1965 includes 10 starts within which the new world champion must be determined. Unsurprisingly, the name of Jim Clark appears on the scene, who, together with Lotus, is attacking the world title. His great rival Graham Hill is also pursuing rehabilitation with BRM after last season's disappointment. Also appearing on the stage is the excellently performing Jackie Stewart for BRM, who surprisingly triumphed at Monza for the Italian Grand Prix. All three British drivers and all three from British teams.

Aiming for his second Formula 1 World Championship title, Jim Clark is elusive. Won 6 out of 10 starts, leaving behind all his competitors. The title is back in Great Britain. The podium is again completed by British pilots - Graham Hill and Jackie Stewart.

Among the constructors, the title is expected to go to Lotus. However, Britain has two more reasons to celebrate - BRM and Brabham Climax, which complete the prize-winners.
