The slowest time, approximately ten minutes, was recorded by Brabham, who pushed his (14) Cooper T43 from the tunnel all the way to the finishing line with a faulty fuel pump. This gallant effort was sufficient for him to claim sixth place as a down payment on a great future. Monaco Grand Prix 1957.
Jack Brabham leans over the cockpit of his dark, cigar-shaped Cooper T43 during the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix. After the number 14 car suffered a faulty fuel pump near the tunnel, Brabham famously pushed it all the way to the finishing line. This gallant effort, taking approximately ten minutes, was sufficient for him to claim sixth place as a down payment on a great future in motorsport.
