Sat at Woodcote last Sunday, very sad to see one of the historic F1 cars crash at Brooklands corner. Not serious but resulted in that demo being cancelled. See my pic below.

Does anyone know what this car is and better still a full list of the historic cars and their drivers last Sunday? I cannot find it anywhere. TIA.

Well I googled "Yellow F1 car 70s 14"

Appears to be a Coparsucar Fittipaldi F5A, unless someone knows any different?

Definitely a Copersucar.

Copersucar was set up by Wilson Fittipaldi, Emerson's brother. They weren't terribly succesful but they helped launch Keke Rosberg's F1 career and effectively ended Emerson's F1 career smile

Wilson died only a few months ago.

Likely would’ve been a combination of FORCE (Lorina McLaughlin and her Benetton B192 are part of it) and Officina Caira - google them and look at their stock of cars.

If they had a Historic F1 race as they have in Monaco it could prove entertaining.

They do hold historic races (including F1) at Silverstone.
