Some African countries did take part in the Games 1976: African countries boycott Olympics England have The opening ceremony of the 21st Olympic Games in Montreal has been marred by the withdrawal of 25 African countries. They are all protesting at New Zealand's sporting links with South Africa. The International Olympic Committee's refusal to ban New Zealand, whose rugby team is currently touring South Africa, has resulted in the boycott. South Africa has been banned from the Olympics since 1964 for its refusal to condemn apartheid . 'Illogical' A spokesperson for the New Zealand Olympic Committee said the All Blacks tour of South Africa had been arranged by the New Zealand Rugby Union which was an autonomous body and nothing to do with the Olympics. He said it was illogical to single out New Zealand as it was one of 26 countries to have played sport in South Africa during the past year. More than 300 competitors will now not take part in the Games which will mean many events will have to be cancelled or re-scheduled. Athletics events will be particularly affected by the absence of Filbert Bayi from Tanzania, who holds the world record in the 1500m and John Akii-Bua of Uganda, world record-holder in the 400 metres hurdles. The latest country to announce its withdrawal was Kenya. In a statement issued just hours before the opening ceremony, the country's foreign minister James Osogo said: "The government and the people of Kenya hold the view that principles are more precious than medals." He said the decision by the IOC not to ban New Zealand would give "comfort and respectability to the South African racist regime and encourage it to continue to defy world opinion." The IOC will now have to decide what sanctions should be imposed on the boycotting countries, who risk being expelled from the Olympic movement. Approximately 20 of the 26 countries who have withdrawn from the competition had already travelled to Montreal but will now return home. The list of those boycotting the Olympics is: Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Kenya, Zambia, Nigeria, Gambia, Sudan, Ghana, Tanzania, Uganda, Algeria, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Central African Republic, Gabon, Chad, Togo, Niger, Congo, Mauritius, Upper Volta and Malawi. Taiwan also withdrew on the grounds that the Canadian government refused to allow her to compete under the name of the Republic of China. There are already fears the Commonwealth Games due to be held in Edmonton, Canada in two years time will be affected by the African boycott.

Stirling Moss comes from a racing background 1955: Moss claims first Grand Prix victory Artificially 1969: The Stirling Moss has won the British Grand Prix at the Aintree track near Liverpool - the first time an Englishman has triumphed in the race. Another British driver, Mike Hawthorn, finished in sixth place. London-born Moss, 25, held off a stiff challenge from his Mercedes-Benz team mate, world champion Juan Manuel Fangio. Fangio had posted the second-fastest time after Moss during the warm-ups and led for the first couple of laps of the race but was overtaken by Moss on the third. The Argentine driver gained the lead again on the 18th lap but by lap 26 Moss was in front once more. He kept first place for the rest of the 90 laps in spite of a strong last-lap challenge by Fangio at Tatts Corner. The two silver Mercedes crossed the line almost together. Rapid progression However, the lack of personal rivalry between the drivers was made plain by Moss in his winner's speech. Moss said Fangio could have taken the race if he had wished but, being a great sportsman, had allowed Moss to achieve his long-held ambition of winning the British Grand Prix. But given the history of racing in his family it was inevitable that sooner or later Stirling Moss would win a Grand Prix. During the 1920s his father, Alfred, a dentist, took part in races including the Indianapolis 500. His mother, Aileen, also took part in rallies and won the Ladies Experts Trials in 1936. At the age of 18 Stirling Moss sold many of his possessions to buy his first racing car - a Cooper - in which he won 11 of his first 15 races. He progressed rapidly through Formula Three and Formula Two to compete in F1 races. However, his strong sense of patriotism has kept him largely in British cars and it was not until last year he accepted an offer to join the German Mercedes-Benz team.
