"...The two fastest cars on the track, Hunt’s McLaren M23 and Watson’s Penske PC4, were first and second, nose to tail, with 62 laps to go, and of course no pesky pitstops to interrupt their combat... It was a robust, gritty, red-blooded dogfight." READ MORE F1 Pablo Elizalde Is Honda's new engine enough to save Aston Martin's F1 season?
