C4422 Brabham BT46 - Italian GP 1978 - John Watson

High Detail

While the C variant of the Brabham BT46 is the more famous of the family, due to its fan, the B model was a successful machine in its own right. In this particular example John Watson came second in the fateful 1978 Italian Grand Prix, just behind teammate Niki Lauda in a similar car. While the event itself was overshadowed by the tragic death of Ronnie Peterson, the 1-2 for Brabham was still an impressive result.
