EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1968 Dutch Grand Prix, we witness racing legend Dan Gurney pushing the boundaries of safety in Formula One.

The intensity on Gurney's face is palpable as he prepares to take on the challenging Zandvoort circuit. With his eyes fixed ahead, he exudes confidence and determination - qualities that propelled him to become one of America's greatest motorsport icons. However, fate had other plans for Gurney that day. Despite his meticulous preparations and cutting-edge safety gear, mechanical issues plagued his race. Throttle slides forced him into an early retirement, leaving fans disappointed but still in awe of his unwavering commitment to pushing the limits. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the risks drivers faced during this era and their relentless pursuit of excellence amidst adversity. It also highlights how advancements in safety equipment like Bell's full-face crash helmet were crucial steps towards protecting drivers' lives on the track. As we reflect upon this historic moment captured by Motorsport Images, it becomes evident that Dan Gurney's legacy extends far beyond mere victories or championships; it encompasses bravery, innovation, and an unyielding passion for speed that forever changed Formula One racing.
