Or not.. I worked a flag station at turn 6 (outside of the bottom of the corkscrew) at the big shootout between DG and Moss. (1960?) Moss was driving CABC's Lotus 19, (BRG), DG was driving Frank Arciero's Lotus 19 (tomato juice red) and there was nothing at all to choose between their driving styles...'Bout the 5th lap, I had my head sticking out between the haybales, trying to find the least difference between their driving lines, gear shifts, any thing, when Moss came through in full drift, took his right hand off the wheel and waved at me...
I'm convinced to this day that DG was at least the equal of Moss, though he lost that race. Factory car to privateer, no surprise.
