		The 1966 South African GP had been a non-championship race at East London, but the opening round of the 1967 series took place on January 2 at the new Kyalami circuit near Johannesburg.
		Ferrari and McLaren did not bother to go to South Africa, however, and so Brabham and Hulme lined up 1-2 on the grid with Clark and Rodriguez on the second row.

		South Africa has a long and strong motorsport heritage that would be stronger still but for its period of near sporting isolation during the years of apartheid.

		South Africa was expelled from the Commonwealth in 1961 and massed relocation led to the formation of fl homelands.
