George Nixon and Cuth Harrison laps

There seems to be a bit of disagreement between various sources about the number of laps completed by these drivers, especially Cuth Harrison who is missing from some sources.

Stats F1 has Nixon on 16, Harrison is missing [1]

silhouet.com has Nixon on 16, Harrison on 25 [2]

Doug Nye's The British Grand Prix 1926-76 has Nixon on 25, Harrison is missing, and the report makes no mention of either of them.

Motorsport magazine's archive [3] is little help as it doesn't have laps completed on results pages... Harrison IS missing from the results however (he is shown as qualifying 9th as he should be, but he isn't even listed as DNS for the race). On both driver pages ([4], [5]) they are given 100 laps DNF which is clearly wrong.

If anyone has any other sources (ideally the Black Book!) that would be quite helpful. A7V2 (talk) 07:08, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
