One of the most chaotic, controversial finishes in motorsport history unfolds under a torrential downpour. A sudden, violent storm triggers massive multi-car crashes, forcing a premature red flag. Race leader Jim Richards crashes out in the chaos, yet a technical rule book quirk awards the victory to his wrecked Nissan Skyline. Facing a hostile, booing crowd on the podium, Richards delivers an iconic, unfiltered speech that etches itself into mountain folklore.
