1965 / CLARK
A scrolling recap of 1965 in six acts. The champion, the constructor, the bump chart, and the race-by-race podiums.
The points reel out, race after race.
Every line is a driver's running championship total. The heaviest three at the top are the ones who mattered. Jim Clark closed the year on 54 points, a 14-point gap over P2.
Two-car teams, one trophy.
The constructors' championship is a different game — both cars score. A team can win it with consistent doubles even when neither driver leads the standings. Lotus ended on 54 points.
