Formula 3 was a superb training ground for many British drivers in the early 1950s. For this sunny International Daily Express Trophy Race Meeting at Silverstone on May 9, 1953, the front row was also the finishing order! Don Parker (#23) started from pole in his Kieft and went on to win. Next to him is R.G. Bicknell who finished 2nd in a Staride (#16), while Eric Brandonin’s Cooper (#15) will be 3rd despite enjoying a small lead here. On the far right is Don Truman’s Cooper (#3), which will end up taking the 4th position.
