Hi Peter I may be wrong as I am quite often but I think this could well have been Fred Brindley this happened to him. I remember some weeks later at Cadwell he had some nasty scrapes and cuts on his back from that off but I think that was 66.

Fred Brindley turned his outfit over at a very wet Mallory park in 1965.
He still managed to finish third in the invitation race upside down.

I have a photo of Steve & Jim Williamson from the meeting Fred and Dave Saville crossed the finish upside down.
It was from MCI, JW was pulling his goggles down the caption said " cant se a thing " Steve & Jim finished 4th i think Fred & Dave was credited with 3rd.
Its dated May 22 1966
