On this day in 1971, Jo Siffert was rewarded with his second Grand Prix victory, winning the Austrian Grand Prix with the supremely elegant BRM P160.
It was a clean sweep for 'Seppi' who started from pole and left everyone in his stride, clinching the fastest lap in the process.
In a sense, Zeltweg 1971 was also a seminal event for F1.
