33 divided by… Alfa Romeo Carabo, 1968, by Bertone. The Tipo 33 had an illustrious racing career, but it also provided the basis for an unusually large number of concept cars. One of the first was Marcello Gandini’s “beetle,” which had a profound effect on car design for the next decade. It used chassis number 75033.109, which was that of a 33 Stradale road car using an alloy 1995cc 90º V8.
New Zealander Chris Amon was a titan of motorsport whose F1 career (1963–1976) was defined by immense talent and bizarre misfortune. Mario Andretti famously quipped: "if Amon became an undertaker, people would stop dying”.
After debuting with Reg Parnell in 1963 and briefly running his own privateer Brabham in 1966, Chris spent his peak years with Ferrari, March, and Matra. Despite winning two non-championship races, he never won a F1 championship GP.
His luck reached a nadir in 1974 when he launched the Amon AF1. Despite design cues inspired by the successful Lotus 72, the project was a disaster and the team folded due to lack of funds. Following a stint with Ensign, his career ended abruptly in 1976. After a heavy qualifying crash in Canada while driving for Walter Wolf, Amon chose not to start the final North American races, marking the end of a career that saw him conquer Le Mans (1966) and Daytona (1967), even if F1 glory remained out of reach.
