Strange F1 trivia question?

May be...

Tony Flair is absolutely correct, Jackie Oliver`s Lotus and Alan Rees` Brabham were both Formula 2 machines.

Just reading and found something odd:

Guy Ligier scored one point as a driver in his F1 career.

It came at the 1967 German GP at the NГјrburgring, yet he was classified 8th and the scoring system was 9-6-4-3-2-1 for 1st-6th places.

None of the drivers who finished ahead of him were disqualified, so how did he score his point?

(I do know the answer, I'm just giving you something to do until practice starts tomorrow...)

No idea can't find it, but this site the results say's he finished 6th??
I was born in 84 so bit before my time :)

Maybe they gave it to him for good behaviour?

Jackie Oliver and Alan Rees who finished above him were Formula 2 drivers, so not classified in the Formula 1 points tally.

Not 100% on this but were some of the cars Formula 2 cars???

Two of the cars that finished ahead of him were Formula Two cars, driven by Jackie Oliver(5th place) and Alan Rees(7th place).

fastest lap?
