The race was the last World Championship Grand Prix in which Climax-powered cars were entered. One of the entrants, Al Pease, in an Eagle-Climax, became the only driver in F1 history to be disqualified for driving too slowly. [2] The other entrant, John Cordts in a Brabham-Climax, retired after only ten laps.
By finishing sixth, Johnny Servoz-Gavin became the first (and, as of 2025, only) driver in Formula One history to score points in a four-wheel drive car.
