FORMULA 2 EDITORIAL 193 THERE is reason to suppose that the F.L.A. will be asked to decree a minimum weight limit of 500 kilogrammes for Formula 2 machines-a proposal which is being sup- ported by several delegates. Great Britain, of course. has not been consulted as to the suggested weight limit- at least Lotus and Cooper have not been informed. That such a limit should be imposed without British support seems ridiculous, as F2 cars in this country far out- number those in any other part of the world. In fact. AUTOSPORT would go so far as to say that Scuderia Ferrari possesses the only completed and genuine F2 car on the Continent. This car is, of course, much heavier than any of the British machines which would tend to handicap it on circuits other than the very fast ones. It would not be surprising to learn that the weight limit was suggested by Ferrari. It is hoped that the British dele- gates to next October's F.I.A. meeting will endeavour to obtain the support of other countries in opposing a definite weight limit regulation. It is quite sufficient to insist on pump fuels and a capacity limit of 1,500 cc. unsupercharged, without penalizing designers who have the knowledge and experience to build successful small- capacity machines with a high power-weight ratio. RACE COMMENTARIES A LETTER in AUTOSPORT has produced a volume of correspondence on the subject of race commentaries, a selection of which appears in this issue. The first job of a motor racing commentator is to convey to the public a general picture of what is happening in the form of verbal race bulletins, thus giving information which is not readily available to the average spectator. No one asks for more than this; if such information is accurately presented, without any attempt at embroidery, then the commentator is doing the job expected of him. A certain amount of descriptive building-up is often necessary to produce good listening material but over-dramatization of relatively unimportant incidents is often adopted to cover up a lack of really useful information. The majority of commentators do a good job of work-but that is what the paying spectator has a right to demand. otherwise the organizers might as well play a selection of gramophone records. INDIANAPOLIS v. NURBURGRING HE exchange of challenges between American THE publisher Floyd Clymer and Juan Fangio may, if carried into action, go a long way towards bridging the gulf in understanding that still exists in regard to "big time" racing on opposite sides of the Atlantic. The Monza "500" gave Europeans an initiation into the very high speeds which are commonplace at "Indy", but a few laps of the Nürburgring would, we feel sure, convince American sceptics that in virtuosity of driving skill alone, Fangio deserves his status as World Champion. OUR COVER PICTURE- STILL CHAMPION: Pictured by Francis Penn, at the Karussell during practice for the German Grand Prix, Juan Manuel Fangio recorded fastest practice lap in his Maserati and then went on to win the race at an average speed that exceeded the previous lap record.
