He went on to win 14 Grand Prix, 2 world championships in 62 and 68, he won the Monaco GP 5 times, he won the Indy 500 in 66 and the 24 hours of Le Mans in 72. He then went on to form his own team but was killed in a plane crash in 1975. His son Damon became F1 champion in 1996

I still haven’t got past the time he lusted after his own daughter

He doesn’t actually care one or the other about immigrants, why would he? He cares about getting Farage elected because he knows that Farage will give INEOS and all other big businesses all the handouts they could ever want. No one loves a free lunch like the rich.

I’m sure Jeffries and Schumer are the men for the job and will get on it ASAP

Motorsport in the Third Reich. Never a member of the Nazi party and once refused an appearance in 1943 to entertain German troops as he couldn’t reconcile his beliefs with the aims of the regime. Left Germany and moved to Switzerland. He died in September 1959

As a way of Mercedes apologising for it being late. Dunned the Regenmeister for his skill in wet weather. Great friend and rival of the other great German driver of the age, Bernd Rosemeyer. Rudi Wasn’t a Nazi but was a member of the NSKK, a sort of paramilitary group dedicated to mechanics and

Drew a lot of comparisons from the tabloids with Tim Henman, similar in that he had a great career and spent a decade in the worlds top ten but never got a grand slam. And similarly spent a lot of time being shit on by The S*n. But DC was a great driver who I think will be looked back on fondly

Very underrated imo. Suffered a lot from uk press prejudice. British when he won, Scottish when he lost. But to be in F1 for well over a decade is a huge achievement in itself plus he won 13 races which is certainly not to be sniffed at. Unlucky to be with Mika when he was at his best.

Gave debuts to both Schumacher brothers, and provided one of the all time most beautiful F1 cars in the Jordan 191. As we moved into the 90s the liveries turned bright yellow as Benson & Hedges became the sponsor, giving us some of the most memorable cars of all time. Bitten and Hisses anyone?
