1966 «I didn't get the best start, but I took the lead on the second lap and Jerry Grant and I never let up. We lead most of the race, at record speed, until we retired with an overheating engine at the end of the 17th hour.» |
1967 «The car was absolutely flawless but the only thing that worried me was that A. J. had only ten laps of practice before the race. For this type of event, that's not enough.» |
1967 «I started the race from the traditional Le Mans start. I got a good jump on the field and decided not to buckle my harness until I got the Mulsanne. At end of the first lap there were tree Fords and a Ferrari ahead of me and I began to concentrate on our race plan. During the first couple of hours you try to stay out of trouble while setting a fair pace.» |
