🙌 The rain shortened Austrian Grand Prix ended on this day fifty years ago with winner Vittorio Brambilla crashing on his victory lap! 💥🫣   Far from a fluke win, Brambilla simply out-drove the field in horrible conditions; running third to home hero Niki Lauda and James Hunt until both made errors, he led by almost half a minute when the race was stopped. 🌧️ It was the first F1 win for an Italian driver since 1966. 🇮🇹 . . . .   #F1 #OnThisDay #VittorioBrambilla #March #crash #F1crash #AustrianGP #AustrianGrandPrix #Osterreichring #ClassicF1 #70sF1 #FormulaOne #Formula1 #GrandPrix #F1History #PhotographyHistory #MotorsportHistory #MotorsportPhotography #GettyImages #GettySport #LATImages #RainerSchlegelmilch #SuttonImages
