1968 German Grand Prix

[2] After Jo Siffert had surprisingly won the previous race at Brands Hatch, the paddock arrived at the Nürburgring almost unchanged.[3] On Saturday, conditions were so poor, with visibility down to mere ten yards, that the organizers scheduled an additional practice session for Sunday morning.He put his superior Dunlop wet tires to great effect and by the end of lap 2, had extended his lead to 34 seconds.The eventual World Champion had spun on lap 11, but was able to get out of the car, push it into the right direction and keep going before third-placed Jochen Rindt could catch up.About the first lap he wrote: Visibility is so pathetically poor I can't even see Chris' car in front of me [...] I am simply driving into this great wall of spray.
