Ickx the Ringmeister conquers his final Grand Prix win
On this day in 1972, Jacky Ickx led home a Ferrari 1-2 at the German Grand Prix held at the Nurburgring. A master of the daunting 'green hell' circuit, the Belgian ace enjoyed a flag-to-flag win at the wheel of his beautiful 312B2, dominating a field from which championship leaders Emerson Fittipaldi and Jackie Stewart were both forced to retire.

Ickx's triumph was his eighth and final Grand Prix win.
