Gordon Wilkins covers the world of Grand Prix Racing

Graham Hill and Jackie Stewart were favourites to win the 1968 drivers' world championship, which was decided last Sunday at the Grand Prix of Mexico. This was the last race of a Grand Prix season which has seen the loss in crashes of Jim Clarke and Joe Schlesser, and the popularity among constructors of the Ford V8 formula I engine.
What accounts for the growing public appeal of motor racing? Is it the men or the machines which draw the crowd?
