Only thinking about him on Saturday afternoon when I re-watched
John Frankenheimer's 1996 movie "Grand Prix".

Brabham makes a few cameos in it including where they depict him
overtaking a Ferrari on the outside of a curve at Spa.

The attrition rate of F1 drivers in those days was so appalling that it was
an achievement in itself just to survive to a ripe old age.

One of the all time greatest drivers.
