James Garner's signature still on the dashboard. |
"P261" / Lotus
22 The classic film Grand Prix of director John Frankenheimer included scenes shot during actual races of 1966. The story also required extra filming at the GP circuits including shots of the actors behind the wheel. Star James Garner drove a "Jordan-BRM" based on live footage of the BRM P261 at the Monaco Grand Prix. The actual car he drove was a Lotus 22 Formula Junior with added bodywork to give the look of the real BRM. On
