Keith Greene on the occasion of his appointment as Team Manager of Brabham by Bernie Ecclestone, the new owner of Motor Racing Developments Ltd in 1972.
Ron Tauranac would have approved of this povvo-PR announcement out front of MRD in Byfleet Road, New Haw, Weybridge, Surrey. The prop is a BT38 (?) nosecone.
Of course, having made the random discovery, one then Googles away, I rather like this Autosport obituary as a summary of Keith’s many achievements: https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/keith-greene-obituary-f1-racer-turned-team-manager-dies-aged-83/5668095/
At the wheel during the August 5, 1962 German Grand Prix. Gilby BRM, Q19 0f 30 and DNF suspension after 7 of 15 laps. Graham Hill won from John Surtees and Dan Gurney: BRM P57, Lola Mk4 Climax and Porsche 804.
Coincidentally, Brabham’s guvnor, or joint-guvnor, Jack Brabham, made the marque’s GP debut at this 1962 event in Ron Tauranac’s Brabham BT3 Climax FWMV 1.5 V8: https://primotipo.com/2015/11/06/brabhams-lotuses-and-first-gp-car-the-bt3-climax/
