EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1972 French Grand Prix, the Formula One World Championship witnessed the rise of a true star. Chris Amon, hailing from New Zealand, stole the limelight as he showcased his remarkable skills behind the wheel of the new Matra Simca MS120D. The crowd held their breath as Amon secured pole position, setting himself up for an exhilarating race. However, fate had other plans for Amon. Leading with sheer determination and unmatched speed, disaster struck when a puncture threatened to derail his dreams of victory. Undeterred by this setback, Amon demonstrated unwavering resilience and skillfully maneuvered through adversity to secure an impressive third-place finish. This iconic moment captured in time perfectly encapsulates both the thrill and unpredictability that defines Formula One racing. With its breathtaking scenery at Clermont-Ferrand serving as a picturesque backdrop, this image immortalizes not only Amon's extraordinary performance but also pays homage to the rich history of motorsport in France. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder that even amidst challenges and setbacks, true champions find ways to shine brightly on racing's grandest stage.
