Historic Formula 2

This is a photograph that I took at Brittens chicane during the Historic Formula 2 Trophy Race at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2008.

Leading is the 1971 March 712 of Paul Bason followed by the 1971 Lola T240 of Tim Barrington. The 1971 Formula 2 cars were limited to 1.6 litres and most cars used the Ford Cosworth FVA engine. The European Formula 2 Championship that year was won by Ronnie Peterson in a March712.
