The '''7th [[Rand Grand Prix]]''' was a auto race, run to [[Formula One]] rules, held on [[December 12|12 December]] 1964 at [[Kyalami Circuit|Kyalami]], [[South Africa]]. The race was run over two heats, each of 25 laps of the circuit, and was won overall by British driver [[Graham Hill]] in a [[Brabham]] [[Brabham BT11|BT11]].

This race was the Formula One debut for future triple world champion [[Jackie Stewart]], who secured pole position for the first heat. His car failed on the grid, and Hill won with [[Mike Spence]] in second. Stewart took the second heat, but Hill came second to claim the overall victory. [[Brabham]] cars filled the first three places, each with different makes of engine.

==Background==
The entry list for the non-championship of 1964 was entered in a Kyalami Circuit before it was Christmastime on December 25 and the [[1965 South African Grand Prix|first round]] of {{F1|1965}}. The race was only 25 laps in two heats and fifty laps of aggregate race for the Rand Grand Prix.

Before 1965, [[Team Lotus]] had [[Lotus 33|33]]s with [[Mike Spence]] and [[Jim Clark]] was replaced by the "Flying Scot" driver, [[Jackie Stewart]], who will drive in the {{BRM-CON}} on the New Year's Day of 1965. So as [[Graham Hill]] in [[John Willment Automobiles|John Willment's]] {{Brabham-CON}} alongside [[Paul Hawkins]] in another private {{Brabham-CON}} car. For Hill, he will be later in the {{BRM-CON}} with Jackie Stewart in the South African Grand Prix in 1965.

[[Bob Anderson]], legendary [[DW Racing Enterprises|DW Racing]] driver, has joined to race in the non-championship season and [[Tony Maggs]] with his [[Reg Parnell Racing|Parnell's]] {{Team Lotus-BRM}} was seen on the entry list after he joined [[Scuderia Centro Sud]] in the whole World Championship of 1964. [[David Clapham]] and [[Ernie Pieterse]] were the only two to enter the race in [[Lawson Organisation]] and [[Doug Serrurier]] with {{LDS-CON}} was included a {{Climax-ENG}} 1.5 liter engine instead of the {{Alfa Romeo-ENG}} engine, which he used this engine from {{F1|1962}} to {{F1|1963}}. The private team, [[Scuderia Scribante]], had a driver [[Neville Lederle]] with a {{Lotus-Climax}} who finished 6th place in last 2 years of the [[1962 South African Grand Prix|East London race]].

The [[Rhodesia]]n drivers (such as, [[Clive Puzey]], [[Sam Tingle]], and [[John Love]]) have other private cars. The new one was he would be named [[Ray Reed]] driving {{Realpha-CON}} with a 1.5 liter {{Alfa Romeo-ENG}} engine.

Thus [[David Prophet]] will start driving for the non-championship round was able to qualify that Friday. These drivers with other private {{LDS-CON}} cars are [[Jackie Pretorius]], [[Alex Blignaut]], [[Steve Mellet]]. The {{Alfa Romeo-CON}} car in the other private will be entered with a South African driver, [[Peter de Klerk]].

The rest of the driver on the entry list will be [[Dave Charlton]], [[Brausch Niemann]], [[Bob Hay]], [[Rauten Hartmann]] (in {{Netuar-CON}}), [[Dave Hume]], and [[Trevor Blokdyk]].
