Jackie Stewart calls this his toughest race, the 1968 German Grand Prix at the wet Nurburgring. Stewart started sixth, took the lead halfway through the first lap and finished more than four minutes ahead of Graham Hill. The car is Ken Tyrell's Matra MS10 with power from the Ford Cosworth DFV (double four valve) running on hand grooved Dunlop rain tires.
