EDITORIAL

V-DAY AT has won through. By winning the

Grand Prix d'Europe at Aintree last Saturday, Mr.

C. A. Vandervell has done a great service for British

automobile engineering. His Vanwall defeated the finest

Formula 1 cars from Italy, and in so doing, scored a

great victory for private enterprise, justifying the very

large sums of money he has laid out on the realization

of an ideal. To his racing staff, and to his technicians,

AUTOSPORT offers its most sincere congratulations on an

achievement which will have untold repercussions in

overseas markets, backing the recent successes by British-

built sports cars in another sphere of motor-racing.

Stirling Moss, Tony Brooks and Stuart Lewis-Evans

should receive the highest commendation for the part

they played in securing this wonderful victory. Moss

drove brilliantly, despite the fact that he was not fully

recovered from the illness which prevented him from

driving at Rouen or Rheims. Brooks, obviously suffer-

ing from injuries received at Le Mans, displayed great

courage in keeping his Vanwall up with the leaders.

Lewis-Evans, a comparative newcomer to F1 racing.

did all that was asked of him-and more! One must

also mention the little Coopers, costing a fraction of

their more complicated rivals; but once again B.R.M.

failed to finish which is more the pity considering that

they at least were expected to last the distance. In all,

Aintree was a memorable day, and the B.A.R.C. did a

fine job of organization, assisted by the regular staff of

the racecourse, made available for the occasion by Mrs.

Mirabelle Topham.

RADAR TRAPS

ALL fair-minded road-users will surely deprecate the

use of radar and other electronic devices in trapping

those unfortunate enough to exceed the legal speed

limits. The employment of these devices smacks of the

Gestapo, and provides the police with yet another (and

expensive) method of collecting fines. Money spent in

this way would be better served in improving the traffic

chaos which exists today. Cops in cars and motor-

cycles are fair enough, but why reintroduce the un-

sporting and generally inefficient speed-trap? After all,

even electronic apparatus is not foolproof. Also it is

about time that some attempt was made to standardize

penalties for minor motoring offences. It seems odd

that fines should vary according to the whims of those

on the Bench. A scale of fines for contraventions

should apply to all courts under the jurisdiction of

Her Majesty's Government, avoiding what often

amounts to rank injustice in imposing penalties for

similar offences.

OUR COVER PICTURE

Stirling Moss rounds Tatts Corner during the British

Grand Prix with his Vanwall under perfect control.

Moss drove the car in the picture until, in the first half

of the race, he took over Tony Brooks's Vanwall with

which he won. Brooks went on in No. 18 until it

retired with fuel pump trouble.
