In this scene immortalized by Bernard Cahier, a jumping-jack Luca di Montezemolo flanked by the checkered flag man greeted Ferrari driver Niki Lauda for his maiden F1 triumph achieved on this day at Jarama 49 years ago.

It was a 1-2 finish for the Scuderia in Spain, with the young Austrian leading home team mate Clay Regazzoni.

It was also the House of Maranello's 50th Grand Prix win.
