1951 Scottish Grand Prix

The 1951 Scottish Grand Prix was a 50 lap 100-mile (160 km) motor race held on 21 July 1951 at Winfield Airfield (disused) in Berwickshire. Although run to Formula One regulations, the race featured Jaguar XK120s and BMW 328s. Reg Parnell's BRM broke a drive shaft as he left the start line and the race, over 100 miles, was led briefly by Archie Butterworth's 4WD A.J.B. before David Murray took over with a Maserati 4CLT. Joe Kelly's Alta challenged but retired. Murray retired with fuel pump problems and Philip Fotheringham-Parker took the lead in Duncan Hamilton's Maserati 4CL, chased home by Gillie Tyrer's BMW 328. Ian Stewart was third in an XK120.
