Graham Hill had taken pole during qualifying, although he was powerless to prevent Jim Clark from taking the lead in the wet conditions as the Scot got a perfect launch. Hill would challenge Clark for the lead in the opening stages, with the pair disappearing from the rest of the field at an incredible rate, as the track began to dry ever so slightly despite the heavy clouds over the circuit. An almighty scrap for third ran behind for a long time, but the brawl allowed Hill and Clark to dance even further ahead.

  • Graham Hill had taken pole during qualifying, although he was powerless to prevent Jim Clark from taking the lead in the wet conditions as the Scot got a perfect launch. Hill would challenge Clark for the lead in the opening stages, with the pair disappearing from the rest of the field at an incredible rate, as the track began to dry ever so slightly despite the heavy clouds over the circuit. An almighty scrap for third ran behind for a long time, but the brawl allowed Hill and Clark to dance even further ahead. At just after half distance a storm swept across the circuit, causing chaos and delays for many while Clark pulled clear from Hill. As it happened, the Scot was to run alone from that moment on, for Hill suffered a gearbox failure and was out of the race with Clark now a lap ahead of everyone bar those in a battle for second. Bruce McLaren emerged from that group with a few laps to go, and was the only one to escape Clark's scything run to lap the field. Ultimately, the Scot won from the New Zealander by almost five minutes with Dan Gurney completing the podium for Brabham-Climax.
