@peter44.bsky.socialHandsome ’80s #F1 car, the Williams FW11B, isn’t it? #OnThisDay in ’87 Nigel Mansell drove this FW11B to #MexicoGP victory, his 6th win in an F1 season in which he didn’t become F1 world champion. The F1 drivers’ world championship went to his team-mate Nelson Piquet despite his scoring only 3 wins.
Show Post#OnThisDay in 2009, at Interlagos, after a season that had started dominantly & had gradually become ever more nervy, Jenson Button & Brawn GP finally achieved the impossible. It was a truly magnificent achievement for a team that had been on its knees just 10 months before. 👏
Show Post#OnThisDay in ’80, in Montreal, Alan Jones (pic) headed a Williams 1-2, he & team-mate Carlos Reutemann beating all comers, securing Jonesy the ’80 #F1 drivers’ world championship. Oh & what a beautifully fit-for-purpose race car his Williams FW07B was.
Show PostCan it really be 29 years since Jacques Villeneuve won an #F1 GP? Yes, #OnThisDay in ’97, at Nürburgring, he scored his 11th & last F1 GP victory - & it was the last for a Canadian driver, too (so far). Nice podium pic taken by Paul-Henri Cahier.
