Stuart Hall’s superb McLaren M19, built in 1971 and carrying the famous Yardley livery, managed to take pole position for Race E, in the last morning qualifying session, ahead of Michael Lyons’s blue Surtees TS 9 and David Shaw’s special March 721 Eifelland. The same three drivers as Friday at the end of free practice, but in a different order, since Hall managed to go four seconds quicker: 1:34.087 instead of 1:38.711 on Friday, which allowed him to save a three tenths margin on Lyons. Next to Shaw, Sunday on the 2nd row of the grid for Race E, there will be a Brabham BT 37 driven by Jamie Constable and just behind them Alex Caffi, the former F1 driver, in a Ferrari 312 which was not ready for free practice on Friday.
