The year in numbers
The season packed 10 races across 9 countries, with 5 different winners over 1960: Jack Brabham (5), Stirling Moss (2), Bruce McLaren (1), Jim Rathmann (1), Phil Hill (1). Jack Brabham won more than anyone, 5 of the 10 races. The title went to Jack Brabham (Australia), driving for Cooper-Climax, the second of the driver's career. On the raw sums of the table, Jack Brabham closed the year on 43 points, 6 more than Bruce McLaren. A note for anyone checking official records: until 1990 the rules dropped each driver's worst results, so the raw sums in the table can differ from the official 1960 scores.
