Title: Brett Lunger, Who Pulled Lauda from His Flaming Car.
Post by: cosworth151 on March 09, 2022, 06:13:12 PM

I just came across an article on the life of Brett Lunger. He was an F1 driver (and F5000 and other series) during the 1970's. He was Hunt's teammate at Hesketh and David Hobb's teammate in F5000.

An interesting read. Things were really different back then.

Good one Ed. I liked hearing Hobbs helped him when
they were team mates
