On 2 August 1962, umbrellas were a highly sought-after commodity on the German Grand Prix grid. Waiting to tackle the daunting Nordschleife, Sir Jack Brabham (on the left) was about to start his first race in a car he had designed himself. Alongside him was Carel Godin de Beaufort in a privately-entered Porsche. Already a double world champion by then, the former would retire with a broken accelerator, while the latter - a bona-fide gentleman driver - would secure a decent 13th-place finish at the flag. Sadly, the Dutch aristocrat would perish at the same venue on that very day two years later.
