Race Summary
Dan Gurney achieved a landmark victory at Spa-Francorchamps, winning for his own Eagle team and becoming the first driver-constructor to win a Grand Prix since Jack Brabham. The American's beautifully crafted Eagle-Weslake demonstrated engineering excellence, with Gurney's driving skill combining with his team's technical prowess to defeat the established teams. The victory at the fearsome Belgian circuit showcased Gurney's exceptional talent across multiple roles as driver, constructor, and team owner.
Jackie Stewart finished second for BRM ahead of Chris Amon's Ferrari, with both unable to match Gurney's pace. The victory represented the pinnacle of American involvement in 1960s Grand Prix racing and demonstrated that small, focused operations could compete with major manufacturers. Gurney's triumph at Spa would prove to be Eagle's only Formula 1 victory, though the achievement secured his place in motorsport history. The win demonstrated that driver-constructors could still succeed in Formula 1's increasingly professional era.
