Behind them it was still Scheckter a lonely third with P ryce and Jarier next up. At this stage Guy Edwards retired from the race when an exhaust came adrift. Several laps later Jackie Ickx retired quietly after running tenth for most of the time. After 25 laps the leaders began to lap the tail enders with Hunt gettingbyKessel a lot easier than Brambilla and was thus able to get away from the Italian who from this point gradually lost ground.

Jarier often came through the chicane with sparks flying as wing tips and otl!er metal made contact with the concrete curbs as he tried desperately to stay ahead of Nilsson. Nilsson was quite content to stay where he was as to pass Jarier would have involved a fair amount of risk. He was better off where he was, learning all the time.

Alan Jones should have finished seventh after a steady drive but ran out of fuel on the last lap. Nilsson too would have encountered the same problem had the race been one lap longer for his car ran out of fuel as he reached the pit road after completing his slowing down lap.
