Siffert graduated to Formula One as a privateer in 1962, with a Lotus-Climax. In 1964 he joined Rob Walker's private Racing Team. Early successes included victories in the non-Championship 1964 and 1965 Mediterranean Grands Prix, both times beating Jim Clark by a very narrow margin.In 1968, Siffert drove into the F1 history books by winning the British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch in Rob Walker's Lotus 49B, beating Chris Amon's Ferrari into second place after a race-long battle. This is regarded as the last GP victory by a genuine privateer.
