I took this photograph in the paddock at Aintree on practice day for the British Grand Prix in July 1962.
It's the 1962 Cooper T60 that was driven in the race for the Cooper works team by Tony Maggs, and has a 1,494cc V8 Coventry Climax FWMV engine. It is chassis F1-18-61 and Tony Maggs qualified the car in thirteenth place on the grid and finished the race in sixth place. In the 1962 season his best result was second place in the French Grand Prix and he was seventh in the World Drivers' Championship.
