EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling atmosphere of the 1963 Autosport 3 hours race held in Snetterton, England. The image captures a pivotal moment at the start of the race, as four iconic racing cars line up on the grid, ready to unleash their power and skill upon the track. From left to right, we see Roy Salvadori in his Cooper Monaco T61 Climax, unfortunately retired from the race. Next to him is Jim Clark, who would go on to claim victory in his Lotus 23B Ford. With determination etched across his face and hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, Clark exudes confidence as he prepares for what lies ahead. Beside Clark stands Tony Hegbourne with his Lotus 23B Ford. Although ultimately unable to finish due to unforeseen circumstances, Hegbourne's presence adds an air of anticipation and excitement within this snapshot frozen in time. Completing this quartet is Jack Sears seated behind the wheel of a magnificent Ferrari 250 GTO. Positioned in fourth place at that moment, Sears' focused gaze hints at his unwavering determination to climb up through ranks during this grueling endurance event. The timeless quality of this photograph allows us not only a glimpse into motorsport history but also offers a window into an era where these legendary drivers showcased their skills amidst roaring engines and cheering crowds. Preserved by LAT Photographic under World Copyright protection since its capture on September 28th, 1963; it serves as a testament to both technical prowess and human spirit that continues to captivate enthusiasts today.
