McLaren may have hit the same oil a lap or two later, clipped the ambulance which was there after Thomas's incident, and ended up in the ditch as well. It looked fairly scary from the Hill Stand, until the drivers reappeared. McLaren took over Phil Hill's Cooper for the GP, but retired about one-third distance. Must have been in the GP Preliminary Race.
