for Neil

Neil.P:
Hi mate, I loved James. Can anybody remember the controversy that surrounded his race at Brands in 1976?? I can remember the crowd being upset about him being disqualified, not sure but did'nt they restart the race??
I've searched for more info on this but can't seem to find the right info!
Did'nt he also drive a race with only half a gearstick once!?

He was also a brilliant commentator after his driving career was over, not sure if people overseas are aware of this!?!

Thanks for the post

A brief recap of the race. The problem seems to have been over him restarting in a back-up car.

Neil.P:
Thanks Cos, remember seeing the 'near riot' on the documentary about him a few years back :D
