The 1967 Mexican Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez on 22 October 1967. It was the eleventh and final race of the 1967 World Championship of Drivers. The race was won by over a minute by Jim Clark, driving for Lotus-Ford, despite not being able to use his clutch during almost the entire race.[1] New Zealander Denny Hulme clinched his only World Championship by coming home third, earning the necessary points to edge out team mate and three-time World Champion Jack Brabham.
