The Lotus driver - seen here leading teammate Trevor Taylor - launched his 85-lap race around the 3.9km circuit from pole and never looked back, conquering his tenth career win, his seventh victory of the season and his maiden world championship. Brabham's Dan Gurney clocked in second over a minute behind while BRM's Graham Hill was third. The race would be the last Formula 1 event held in the month of December until the 2019 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. images Jim Clarke Look back South African Grand Prix
