Summary
COI synopsis: Thirty miles to the south of Auckland in New Zealand is the Ardmore circuit - each year the thrill-packed stage for the New Zealand Grand Prix. Although only ten years old, this track has been used by such aces as Juan Fangio, Stirling Moss, Graham Hill and Jim Clarke. A proud contribution to the world of motor-racing.
