The 1967 European Formula Two season was the 1st FIA European Formula Two Championship . It commenced on 24 March 1967 and ended on 8 October after ten races. Jacky Ickx won the Championship after winning the last race in Vallelunga , but the most successful driver of the season was Jochen Rindt , who won five Championship races but, as a graded driver, he was ineligible to earn points, so Ickx won the Championship. Other graded drivers, like Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart , also each won races.[1]
