Paris 1000 km race 1964

The fifth 1000 km race of Paris , also 1000 km de Paris, Montlhéry , took place on October 11, 1964 at the Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry and was the 20th and final race of the sports car world championship of that year.

The death of Peter Lindner and Franco Patria

The 1964 sports car season ended with the 1000 km race in Paris, the 20th and final race of the sports car world championship of that year. Even Peter Lindner and Peter Nöcker took part in the race on the high-speed line from Montlhéry who was feared mainly because of their steep turns. After it started to rain, there was a serious accident on lap 83. The Italian Franco Patria had the class leading work - Abarth-Simca 1300 Bialbero by his compatriot Luigi Taramazzo adopted and had new tires and a full tank on the way from the pit lane back to the track. The pit lane in Montlhéry was only separated from the track by bales of straw. In order to ensure a minimum of security, two stewards and a stewardship, including the former racing driver Jean Pairard , monitored the exit and only allowed cars back on the track when it was free. As Patria was waiting at the exit, Peter Lindner came out of the steep bend in front of the start and finish on the wet track, seemed to be braking and skidded. He was in sixth place and was involved in a duel with the British Dick Protheroe , who also drove an E-Type Jaguar.

Lindner lost control of the Jaguar on the smooth track, touched the straw bales, and vehicle parts came loose. The car was thrown up about ten meters, turned on its own axis, so that Lindner fell out. The jaguar hit Patrias Abarth with full force and pushed him against a wall. Franco Patria as well as the stewards and the steward who were in the immediate vicinity died immediately. Peter Lindner was initially conscious, but died a little later in the hospital from serious internal injuries despite a blood transfusion. The race went on and ended with a win for Graham Hill and Joakim Bonnier in a Ferrari 330P .
