1. THE AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX The title ‘Grand Prix’ has associations extending back to the very earliest days of competition and the French form of the words stems from their first use in association with the . Although at least one earlier event was given the name “Australian Grand Prix”, the premier Australian race was first recognised in 1928, and has been conducted since then each year except 1936 and during World War II. Since 1949 it has been a scratch race, but in the years 1934, 1935, 1937, 1939, 1947 and 1948, the winner was not the fastest, but won on handicap. Since 1985, the Grand Prix has been a round of the FIA Formula 1™ World Championship.

THE TROPHY FOR THE AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX This trophy, designed and made in Britain by Mr Rex Hays to the order of CAMS, incorporates a silver model of the Austin Seven driven to victory in the first Australian Grand Prix in 1928. The name of the trophy commemorates the late “Lex” Davison, a four-time winner of the Australian Grand Prix (1954, 1957, 1958 and 1961).
