High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1971 Italian Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Monza on September 5, 1971. This race featured the closest finish in Formula One history. Peter Gethin came from 4th place to lead on the final lap with a bold move. None of the 6 points- scoring drivers had ever previously won a Grand Prix. With the championship settled, this was an opportunity for new drivers to prove themselves. Chris Amon in the Matra proved an embarrassment to Ferrari by seizing pole at their home track, with the BRM's on the second row, whilst champion Stewart was in 6th after suffering gearbox problems. Mike Hailwood was making his debut for Surtees—an inspired choice as he held both the Formula 5000 and motorbike lap records for Monza. Clay Regazzoni's Ferrari thrilled the crowd by surging forward from the fourth row to lead from Jo Siffert and Stewart until lap 3, when Ronnie Peterson took the lead. On lap 7, Stewart took the lead.
