Does anybody here believe Jack Brabham?

Doubting fellow drivers may call him a plodder, but the quiet Australian, who led the rich U.S. Grand Prix before dropping out with mechanical difficulties, has now won his third world racing championship
Then Bandini retired with a broken piston on Lap 34, Brabham went out because of ignition trouble 21 laps later, and the race was Clark's for the taking. He took it, at a record average of 114.94. At that moment Brabham was invisible behind that old reliable camouflage.
