Alastair talks about his early days in NZ (including the untimely death of his brother, Bill); his first job at McLaren Racing; the adventures prior to his first Grand Prix (Monza, 1967); Bruce's first win with his own car (Spa, 1968); Bruce's fatal accident at Goodwood; and about some of the major behind-the-scenes incidents of 1976, including tyre "modifications" and the fuel drama at Monza.
