We recently featured Jim Clark's victory at South Africa in December 1963, and one of the men who drove with him for Lotus was born on this day. Mike Spence - seen here racing for BRM at Monaco in 1967 - was born in Croydon, London in 1936, and made sporadic appearances for Lotus from 1963-65. After full seasons with Reg Parnell's team and BRM, Spence was testing the Lotus 56 at Indianapolis in 1968 - having been invited to join the team after Clark's death - when he crashed in practice and died later in hospital.
