Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I uru tuatahi a Parkes ki te Whakataetae Nui o te Ao i te
I tae mai a Aintree i te tau 1959 e taraiwa ana i te Momo 2 (F2) Fry-Climax 1.5-raita Tika-4. Heoi, kaore ia i tohu, ka hoki mai ki nga motuka hakinakina i muri mai, haunga te haerenga kotahi ki Mallory Park i te tau 1962 me te Bowmaker Cooper. Whai muri i tana angitu me nga motuka hakinakina a Ferrari, ka uru a Parkes ki a Ferrari i te tau 1963, hei kaihauturu whanaketanga me te kaitautoko, ana i nga tau e whai ake nei ka mohiotia ko ia te kaihauturu motuka hakinakina. I te wa i wehe ohorere ai a John Surtees i a Ferrari i te tau 1966, i whakatairangahia a Parkes ki te roopu Grand Prix me te taraiwa roa ki te whakauru i tona teitei e ono whatianga e wha inihi, i angitu tonu, i mutu i te tuarua o nga 1966 French Grand Prix i Reims. I wikitoria a Jack Brabham i te whakataetae me tana hoa kapa, a Denny Hulme, tuatoru, i roto i a raatau Brabham Repcos. Heoi i whai ake i tenei e rua nga reti i mua i tetahi atu tuarua i Monza i reira i riro ai ia i te tuunga tuunga. I wikitoria a Parkes i tetahi whakataetae Formula One o te ao i Silverstone ma te tuatoru o te porowhita i runga i a Brabham i te Paenga-whawha 1967. Ko te whakataetae porowhita 52 te whakataetae Formula One tuatahi mo Parkes i tona whenua whanau. I oti i a ia te whakataetae 152.36 maero i roto i te 1:19:39.25 me te tere toharite 114.65 m.p.h.
