Sir Stirling Moss describing how his best ever race in a sportscar was not neccessarily in Formula One, but the famed 1000 mile 'Mille Miglia' in 1955.
With coded hand signals from navigator Denis Jenkinson they successfully won the race in the famous #722 Mercedes-Benz 300SLR, setting the event record at an average of 159.65 km/h (99.20 mph) which was fastest ever on this 1,597 km (992 mi) variant of the course, not to be beaten in the remaining two years.
