Talk:1980 Spanish Grand Prix


Driver quotations

edit

"My job is to drive racing cars, not to get involved in politics. As far as I'm concerned, the Spanish GP was no different from normal: it required the same amount of effort, it covered the same distance and I gave it the same dedication that I give to any other Grand Prix. These things would have been the same whether I'd won or lost. As it happened, I won the race, and now I have to wait and see if I'll be given the points." - Alan Jones (writing in his Motor magazine column the following week), p. 130.

"Whatever Balestre or anyone else says, that was a Grand Prix as far as I'm concerned, and I won it." - Alan Jones (post-season interview), p. 40.
