McLaren was driving for Cooper then, doing his usual job as the team's No 2 driver and staying behind the great Jack Brabham, but two laps from the end Brabham's Cooper Climax started spluttering and he waved McLaren through to his maiden victory. That day McLaren became the youngest driver to win a Formula One grand prix, a record that stood until Spaniard Fernando Alonso bettered it in 2003 (and German Sebastian Vettel lowered it again this year). McLaren was killed while testing at Goodwood on June 2, 1970. by Fiona Rae.
