Lewis Hamilton is getting ready for his first season with Ferrari in 2025. He's won seven World Championships and 105 races, but some of Formula 1's most successful drivers have joined Ferrari in the past and missed out on the ultimate prize. So what lessons can Lewis take from those who came before him? How difficult is it to win titles with the Scuderia? And why is driving for Ferrari so different to any other team in the sport? Digging through the F1 Beyond The Grid archives, Tom Clarkson has found interviews with Sebastian Vettel, Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell and Jody Scheckter – all of whom provide fascinating insight into their time at Ferrari and help answer some of those key questions as Lewis embarks on an exciting new era in red.

The team takes a look back to Monaco Historique and Nick Padmore talks Paul Tarsey about how he he raced two of Colin Chapman's famous JPS Lotus cars at this year's event. He also explains some of the unique challenges which Monaco can pose and how he was invited to take Zak Brown and Adrian Newey on a track walk, the day before the action started, to explain to them both where Monaco's most treacherous spots await the unwary. Zak was racing the ex-Alan Jones Williams FW07 and Adrian was racing his GLTL Lotus 49 over the weekend. Monaco is not just about the racing and Jim Roller discusses the three high-profile auctions which took place over the same weekend in the principality, especially looking at the sale of Jody Scheckter's collection. Paul Jurd has been reading Peter Higham's latest book in his ‘Grand Prix Cars, Car by car' series which covers the decade 2000 to 2009.
In the 1976 Formula One motor racing season, South African driver Jody Scheckter became the first and only person to ever win a race in a six-wheeled car. Competing against him in Sweden was American Mario Andretti. In this episode, both former world champions speak to James Pepper about history being made at the Anderstorp circuit.

Conocido como un errático piloto. Constantemente en accidentes que ponían en peligro tanto a él mismo como a sus colegas. Jody causó uno de los más grandes incidentes en la historia de la F-1 que lo debieron vetar del deporte. En vez de eso, el sudafricano se fortaleció mentalmente y concentró su talento y ambición en convertirse en campeón mundial. Una vez conseguido su objetivo, rápidamente se retiró. Coequiperos bienvenidos a HTEV esta es la historia de Jody Scheckter el feroz campeón sudafricano. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pitwallpodcast/message
La verdad es que tras la aburrida F1 del reglamento de 2014, con un abrumador y soporífero dominio Mercedes, la F1 parece que se ha animado y resulta más entretenida. Pero, desde su creación en 1950, ¿cuál podríamos decir que ha sido la “Edad de Oro” de la F1? Para mí la que arranca con el reglamento llamado de los “3 litros” en 1966 y acaba en 1989 con la prohibición del Turbo… En estos “veintipocos años” se produce una verdadera revolución en lo que respecta a la aerodinámica. Al comienzo del reglamento los monoplazas, sencillamente, eran tubos sin alerones… al final de esta etapa ya estaban erizados de alerones por todas partes y contaban con efecto suelo… En lo que respecta a los alerones delanteros hubo muchas opciones y vamos a ver al menos un ejemplo de cada uno de ellos. Los alerones altos, como por ejemplo los del Brabham BT26 de 1969, iban anclado directamente a los bujes y se prohibieron por su peligrosidad, pues se rompían con facilidad. Hablando de un único alerón delante no me puedo olvidar del March F1 de 1972, el 721 al que llamaron Moby Dick y que contaba con un curioso alerón oval… Pero más aún me gustaban los F1 con morro ancho, como los preciosos March 761, muchos Tyrrel y cómo nació el Renault RS01 que ya en su primera carrera perdió el morro ancho a cambio de los alerones, para gran decepción por mi parte. Gracias al poderoso efecto suelo, algunos coches, por ejemplo, el Brahbam BMW BT49, en ocasiones prescindía de alerones delanteros… no fue el único equipo, fueron muchos, pero sí probablemente el que más prescindió de estos elementos. Pero no podemos hablar de aerodinámica en la F1 sin hablar del efecto suelo y del fabuloso Lotus-Ford 78, para muchos el coche más influyente de la historia. Tanto que, tras un periodo de prohibición, los actuales F1 recurren al mismo efecto suelo que el Lotus en 1987. Todos los coches, todos absolutamente, cambiaron su fisonomía para adaptarse el efecto suelo. Incluso sus motores, porque los motores planos, como los de Ferrari y Alfa Romeo, pasaron a ser en V, que dejaban más espacio libre en los pontones laterales para que el efecto cuelo funcionase. Primero llevaban unas faldillas que arrastraban por el suelo y “cerraban” los laterales. Se prohibieron porque su fallo podía ser causa de accidentes, como por ejemplo como el que, en El 1 de agosto de 1980, costó la vida a uno de mis pilotos favoritos, Patrick Depailler. Las escuderías trataron de compensar la pérdida de las faldillas con pontones elásticos, con suspensiones regulables e incluso con dos chasis, o mejor dicho un chasis y una carrocería separada, como el especialísimo y para mí precioso Lotus 88… A primeros de estos años aparece el motor de F1 “Universal”, el motor Ford Cosworth V8, un motor que tiene el récord de victorias en la F1, casi 200 victorias. Pero en esta F1 hubo motores atmosféricos y turbo, incluso con turbina, con 4, 6, 8, 12 y 16 cilindros y muchos de ellos coexistieron en las mismas parrillas. Ya hemos visto el mejor V8. El mejor V6 acabó siendo el del Renault RS01… de solo 1.5 litros. Porque el llamado reglamento de los “3 litros” si llevabas turbo, tenías que reducir la cilindrada a la mitad… Renault comenzó a andar ese camino y algunos, como Ken Tyrrell, se rieron…. Pero después todos siguieron sus pasos. Los mejores V12 eran los de Ferrari, que no eran bóxer, sino V12 a 180 grados, mientras que los de Matra si eran verdaderos V12 con la V a 60 grados. Y el mejor 4 cilindros, por supuesto turbo, era sin duda el BMW de los Brahbam BT51, que eran pequeños, ligeros y que en las versiones de cualificación sobrepasaban los 1.000 CV… Y no nos olvidamos que en 1971 hubo incluso F1 con motor de turbina de helicóptero, pues Chapman resucito el 56 diseñado para Indianápolis como F1 llamado 56B. Aunque el chasis monocasco debutó en la F1 en 1962 con el Lotus 25 es en estos años cuando se acaba imponiendo su uso, conviviendo durante un tiempo chasis de tubos, chasis de tubos con paneles de refuerzo y monocascos. Los monocascos de aluminio se impusieron rápidamente, hasta que llegó McLaren con su MP4/1 con su monocasco de fibra de carbono, diseño de John Barnard hecho con material procedente de la industria aeronáutica extraordinariamente ligero y resistente. Hasta ese momento nadie había oído hablar de ese compuesto... y en la actualidad se sigue empleando. Pero parte del chasis son las ruedas y el sistema de tracción… y en esos años no estaba prohibido en la F1 ni tener más de cuatro ruedas ni tener tracción total… hoy día, somo podéis imaginar, sí está prohibido. Así nacieron coches como el Tyrrel de 6 ruedas, el P-34, que muchos pensaron que era una maniobra de marketing… hasta que ganó el Gran Premio de Suecia de 1976 con Jody Scheckter a los mandos… Y, de nuevo el genio Colin Chapman, hizo un F1 con tracción a las 4 ruedas.
Sé que todos los que seguís este canal sabéis mucho de coches. Y os imagino pensando, “Máximo, te has confundido, Gilles Villeneuve no tiene ningún récord en la Fórmula1”: Pues sí y no. Os digo una cosa, ¿sabéis de algún otro piloto de F1 que con solo 4 temporadas y nada más que 6 victorias hay sido capaz de convertirse en un mito como Gilles? ¿Qué hace de Gilles Villeneuve un mito? ¿Su estilo espectacular? ¿Su ambición? ¿Su forma de vida exagerada dentro y fuera de la pista? ¿El amor paternal que Enzo Ferrari le profesaba? ¿Sus tensas relaciones con sus compañeros de equipo? ¿Su temprana muerte? ¿El hecho de que su hijo le “vengase” ganando un Mundial? Seguramente todo esto y mucho más, porque hay algo que es indudable: Gilles era un ser humano único. Canadá y la nieve. La familia Villeneuve no era muy adinerada, su padre era afinador de pianos y vivían cerca de Montreal. Para un joven canadiense que no era rico, pero sí amante de la velocidad y del motor había pocas salidas. Las más obvia, las carreras de motos de nieve. Y ahí comenzó todo, Gilles siempre lo dijo, rodar a 200 km/h sobre la nieve. Por fin saltó a los coches corriendo, primero corriendo con su propio coche, un Ford Mustang y luego en monoplazas de la F Ford, disputando el campeonato regional de Quebec. En 1976 y ya con un equipo serio, la Ecurie Canadá dominó la temporada al ganar todas las carreras excepto una y se llevó el título estadounidense y canadiense. Volvió a ganar el campeonato en 1977. Salto a la F1. En una carrera de la Fórmula Atlantic en el circuito de Trois-Rivières coincidió nada menos que con James Hunt. Y le venció. Y dejo impresionado a James, quien le recomendó a su patrón, Teddy Mayer, que probase a ese canadiense loco que iba muy rápido. McLaren ofreció a Villeneuve un tercer monoplaza durante la temporada 1977. El canadiense hizo su debut en el Gran Premio de Gran Bretaña, donde se clasificó noveno con el M23, mientras que Hunt y Jochen Mass conducían el nuevo M26. En la carrera marcó la quinta vuelta más rápida y finalizó undécimo después de haber sido retrasado dos vueltas por el indicador de temperatura defectuoso. Llega Ferrari. Vamos a dejar que esta historia nos la cuente su esposa, Joann Villeneuve: "Sonó el teléfono en casa, descolgué y dije, Gilles, es para ti, están llamando desde el extranjero. Gilles se puso al teléfono con cierta curiosidad y le preguntaron si le gustaría ir a Maranello hacer una prueba en la pista de Fiorano". En agosto de 1977 viajó a Italia para encontrarse con Enzo Ferrari quien de inmediato sintió algo especial por Gilles: “Cuando me presentaron a este pequeño y nervioso canadiense enseguida reconocí en él el físico de Nuvolari y me dije a mí mismo, démosle una oportunidad”. Ferrari nunca es fácil. La temporada 1978 fue muy complicado, con fallo de neumáticos, sobre todo del motor, del propio piloto y con la prensa italiana pidiendo la cabeza de Gilles...así son los italianos. Pero tras dejar Reutemann el equipo y llegar Jody Scheckter las cosas cambiaron, hasta el punto de que Gilles se inmiscuyó en la lucha por el Mundial. La temporada 1980 fue un desastre. Entre los dos pilotos sumaron 8 puntos. El motor atmosférico de 12 cilindros opuesto, que impedía el uso del efecto suelo, hizo del T5 uno de los peores Ferrari de la historia. ¡Hacía falta un turbo y efecto suelo! Y ambas cosas llegaron en 1981 con el 126C. Pero tampoco fue un buen coche. En el 1982 las cosas cambiaron y el 126C2 del recién fichado Harvey Postlethwaite era mucho mejor. Tanto que Villeneuve rechazó una oferta de McLaren. Y llegó el incidente de San Marino, cuando una escalada de la guerra FISA-FOCA hizo que los equipos de FOCA boicotearan la carrera, dejando a Renault como la única oposición seria de Ferrari. La escudería italiana parecía tener la victoria garantizada. Para ahorrar combustible y asegurarse de que los coches terminaran, Ferrari ordenó a ambos pilotos que redujeran la velocidad. Villeneuve creía que la orden también significaba que los pilotos debían mantener la posición, pero Pironi no opinaba lo mismo. En la última vuelta, Didier pasó y frenó justo delante de Gilles en el interior de la última curva y se llevó la victoria. 8 de mayo de 1982. Y así llegamos a Zolder. Nunca sabremos que Villeneuve, una décima detrás de Pironi, quería superarlo, incluso machacarlo o si simplemente fue un malentendido entre Jochen Mass y Gilles. Hay versiones para todos los gustos. Lo que sí es cierto es que Gilles chocó a más de 200 km/h con la trasera del McLaren y voló… Conclusión. Me parecía difícil acabar este video, Jody Scheckter, un grande de la F1, me lo ha puesto fácil. Solo voy a repetir, a ver si lo consigo sin emocionarme, las palabras que dijo en el funeral en Berthierville sobre su excompañero de equipo.

In this episode, Ganna Pogrebna and Patrick Henz discuss the life and career of Jody David Scheckter, who remains the only African driver winning the F1 World Championship title. Jody was racing in Formula 1 from 1972 to 1980 and won 1979 championship driving for Ferrari. After retiring, he pursued several successful business ventures.
This special episode of Data Driven F1 is about Walter Wolf and his Racing Team. Ganna Pogrebna and Patrick Henz analyze Walter Wolf's life and career, in and outside Formula 1. Wolf's entrepreneurial approach was based on key employees, continuous development, marketing, and networking. The undisputed highlight of Walter Wolf Racing as a team was Jody Scheckter's second place in the 1977 championship. https://youtu.be/47MZv3NTdE4
Ganna Pogrebna and Patrick Henz discuss the Formula1 1979 season, analyzing the competition of three different concepts: the reliable flat 12-engine (Ferrari); the advanced ground effect car (Lotus), and the turbo-powered car (Renault). The season also saw fantastic driver line-up: Jody Scheckter, Gilles Villeneuve, Alan Jones, Jacques Laffite, Carlos Reutemann, Rene Arnoux, Niki Lauda, James Hunt and Mario Andretti.
Jennie Gow, Jack Nicholls and Andrew Benson look ahead to the Canadian Grand Prix. They discuss Ferrari's woes, Mercedes' bouncing issues, plus hear from 1979 world champion Jody Scheckter about the potential return of the South African GP.
En remplaçant le champion du monde Niki Lauda chez Ferrari, Gilles Villeneuve devient le centre d’attention de la Formule 1... et il ne déçoit pas! S’il malmène sa voiture plus souvent qu’autrement, il donne alors aux Grands Prix un niveau d’excitation rarement offert. Gagner sur des circuits où on ne l’attendait pas, terminer 3e sans l’aileron avant, transformer une bataille pour la 2e place en combat du siècle, bref, Gilles laisse déjà miroiter sa légende en devenir.

As a young racer growing up in America in the 60s, Bobby Rahal idolised people like Phil Hill, Dan Gurney and Mario Andretti - drivers who had made it across the Atlantic to drive in Formula 1. He dreamt of doing the same; of travelling to Europe to race at the circuits he'd read about in magazines and going wheel to wheel with his racing heroes. After making a name for himself on US road circuits and putting in some stand-out performances in Formula 3, that F1 opportunity came in 1978 when Walter Wolf offered Bobby a seat alongside Jody Scheckter at the US and Canadian Grand Prix. They were the last two races of the season and, sadly, they would be the first and last races that Bobby would contest in Formula 1. Although his time at the top was brief, Bobby's legacy lives on as one of a handful of American drivers to have made it to F1. In this episode, Bobby addresses the need for more US drivers on the grid and he winds back the decades to reveal the passions that fuelled his love of European motorsport, his journey to F1 and what really happened at those two races back in 1978.

40 years ago, in May 1982, Formula 1 lost a marvellous maverick. No-one else drove a car quite like Gilles Villeneuve. He lost his life in a crash while at the very peak of his racing powers. In this special episode, those who knew Gilles share their memories and stories with Tom Clarkson. F1 World Champions Mario Andretti and Jody Scheckter and 7-time Grand Prix winner Rene Arnoux raced alongside Villeneuve and were close to him as friends. Jonathan Giacobazzi idolised Gilles; his family's name appeared as a sponsor on the Canadian's race suit, and their families travelled the racetracks of Europe together. Jochen Mass was also a good friend of Villeneuve – a fact that makes his blameless involvement in the crash which claimed his life even more tragic. They remember Gilles as a person, a teammate, a rival and a friend, and consider why he is still so adored, 40 years after his death.

The last time that South Africa hosted a Formula 1 championship at Kyalami was in 1993 before democracy dawned in the country. In the years up to then, it hosted legends like Damon Hill, Sterling Moss, James Hunt, Niki Lauda, and off course our own world champion, Jody Scheckter with the 9-hour races attracting top endurance riders and teams. In the last year; talks have been going on in the background to re-instate the South African Grand Prix. And now, Motorsport SA Chairman Anton Roux, a well-known board room veteran's appointment to the senate of the international body overseeing motorsport, the FIA or Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile has given new hope that a South African Grand Prix could be on the calendar by 2023. Roux spoke to BizNews about the drive to get Formula 1 back in South Africa, the Hamilton-Verstappen controversy, how a new generation of younger, female, and non-white participants and spectators are emerging and where spinning cars, which have become popular in townships, fit in. – Linda van Tilburg
The 1977 season saw a comeback of a much stronger and more competitive Niki Lauda, but also brought the dawn of the ground effect cars and the beginning of the turbo age. F1 technology has changed. In 1977 we also observed great performances from experienced and new talented drivers such as Mario Andretti, Ronnie Peterson, Emerson Fittipaldi, James Hunt, Alan Jones, and Jody Scheckter. Gilles Villeneuve and Ricardo Patrese debuted in 1977. Check out the lively discussion of the season by Ganna Pogrebna and Patrick Henz!
We looked back at the Austrian GP with South African and former F1 Champion Jody Scheckter. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Soprannominato l'Aviatore, iniziò la propria carriera sportiva partecipando a gare tra motoslitte nella nativa provincia del Québec. Successivamente passò alla guida delle monoposto, e nel 1976, vinse sia il campionato di Formula Atlantic canadese che quello statunitense. Un anno più tardi la McLaren fece esordire Villeneuve in Formula 1 al Gran Premio di Gran Bretagna 1977; nel corso della medesima annata la Scuderia Ferrari lo ingaggiò per le ultime due gare stagionali in sostituzione di Niki Lauda. Legatosi alla scuderia di Maranello per il resto della carriera fece registrare sei vittorie nei Gran Premi ed una vittoria nella Race of Champions del 1979 a Brands Hatch (gara non valida per il titolo), oltre ad un secondo posto nella classifica del Mondiale 1979 alle spalle del compagno di squadra Jody Scheckter come miglior risultato. Morì a seguito di uno schianto a 227 km/h causato da un contatto con la March di Jochen Mass durante le qualifiche per il Gran Premio del Belgio 1982 sul circuito di Zolder, a bordo della Ferrari 126 C2. Villeneuve era molto popolare per il suo stile di guida combattivo e spettacolare, e da allora è diventato un simbolo della storia di questo sport. Le sue vittorie e svariate altre prestazioni vengono considerate capolavori assoluti nella storia della Formula 1, anche perché spesso sono state ottenute al volante di monoposto non all'altezza di quelle della concorrenza
Former F1 Champion Jody Scheckter gave us his thoughts on Lewis Hamilton record breaking feat over the weekend after he won his 92nd Grand Prix overtaking record set by Michael Schumacher.
They’re the most storied team in Formula 1 history, the one that’s been around the longest, the one with the most wins and championships, the one that generates the most headlines, and definitely the one with the most mystique. But what’s it like to drive for the biggest F1 team on the planet, Scuderia Ferrari? In the first of two special episodes, we speak to those who have been there and done it, with our focus in part one on those who drove for the Prancing Horse under legendary founder Enzo Ferrari. So get ready for stories from four Ferrari race winners: Mario Andretti, Jody Scheckter, Tony Brooks and Gerhard Berger…
Ferrari – the biggest name in Formula One. Iconic cars, a global brand, a Formula One team that comes under more scrutiny than any other. As Ferrari marks its 70th anniversary and it’s 1000th Formula One race at the Tuscan Grand Prix this weekend, we’re taking a look at what makes the name such a dominant force within the sport. From the origins of the iconic Prancing Horse logo, their cars and their famous owner Enzo Ferrari to the current day – what’s it like to drive for the most iconic brand in F1? What’s the pressure like, the scrutiny, how does it change your life and what’s it like walking through the gates of the famous Maranello factory for the first time? Felipe Massa, Jody Scheckter and Eddie Irvine all have their say. Plus Shabnam Younus-Jewell is joined by Italian journalist and designer Giorgio Piola and the BBC’s Formula One reporter Jennie Gow.

TC and Alex discuss Ferrari's collapse after their worst result in 40 years (1:43). They're joined by 1979 champion Jody Scheckter (12:50) to hear how things were even worse in 1980 before McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl drops by to explain his management philosophy and how it's been informed by Bayern Munich (18:54).
Ferrari es un fenómeno único y pilotar un coche rojo parece el objetivo de todos los pilotos que llegan a la F1. O de casi todos. Su primer fichaje fue Alberto Ascari y el último, Carlos Sainz. Pero entre ambos ha habido pilotos excepcionales… Antes de hablar de pilotos hablaremos un poco del el equipo, porque todo el mundo tiene en la cabeza que es la mejor escudería de fórmula uno del mundo. Y no es así. o, desde luego, no siempre ha sido así. Ferrari era uno de los mejores equipos en los 50 y 60 cuando ganó varios mundiales y luego llegó la era dorada de Niki Lauda, que gano dos títulos que pudieron ser tres y que propiciaron el título de Jody Scheckter. Pero desde esos años 70 y hasta los 90 es decir casi 20 años no consiguieron ganar un solo título. Fue una sequía que puso a la escudería contra las cuerdas y que sólo se arregló con la llegada de Schumacher. Pero no olvidemos que entre los primeros finales de los 70 y hasta el 2000 Ferrari no ganó ningún título hasta que llegó Michael Schumacher. Bueno, llegó el piloto alemán y un genio como Jean Todt con su equipo técnico. Tras Schumacher y a su rebufo, aprovechando que su coche seguía siendo muy bueno, Kimi Raikkonen gana el mundial de 2007… y hasta ahora. Ni Alonso primero ni Vettel después han conseguido ganar un título con los coches rojos… o sea, que entre el título de Scheckter en el 79 y el de Schumacher en el 2000 pasaron 20 años de sequía y entre el título de Kimi Raikkonen en 2007 y este 2019, llevamos otros 12 años de sequía. El año 2021 Carlos Sainz será el tercer piloto español oficial de Ferrari en Fórmula Uno. ¿Cuáles han sido los otros dos? Todos tenemos en la memoria a Fernando Alonso y sólo los más expertos o los más mayores se acuerdan de Alfonso Antonio Vicente Eduardo Ángel Blas Francisco de Borja Cabeza de Vaca y Leigthon 11º marqués de Portago, más conocido por Marqués de Portago. Después del prometedor Fon de Portago y su dramático final y de las temporadas de Alonso que podríamos denominar como “lo que pudo ser y no fue”, llega ahora el momento de Carlos Sainz. A mí personalmente debo decir que me ilusiona mucho y que estoy convencido que Carlos puede hacer cosas muy grandes en ese equipo.

Το ατύχημα του πρώτου γύρου στο Βρετανικό Grand Prix του 1973 αποτέλεσε τότε το μεγαλύτερο στην σύντομη ιστορία της Formula 1 - και για όλα ευθύνεται ένας οδηγός: ο Jody Scheckter.

Jody Scheckter, President of South African GP says South Africans can look forward to the thrilling fan event of Formula 1 and the technology that will come with it.
Two things come up regularly on the podcast. Firstly, quite a few of my podcast guests have gone through significant career changes to become food, drink and hospitality entrepreneurs. I’m thinking Rupert Holloway at Conker Gin, who gave up surveying to set up his own distillery, or Claire Burnet at Chococo who swapped marketing for freshly made chocolates. As the winner of the 1979 Formula One world championship this weeks guest, Jody Scheckter certainly knows a thing or two about a second career, and in fact even a third! Secondly, obsession, maybe William Curley creating the very best chocolates or Jethro Tenant and his quest to make the best sea salt. Jody certainly takes things to the extreme. He started with such a simple idea. How to provide the very best, tastiest, food for his family. That simple seed of an idea has taken Jody on an incredible adventure, learning the most phenomenal amount about every stage of food production, from seed to plate. In fact, before the seed, Jody and his team of chemists and biologists spent eight years just researching the soil! As he says, everything we eat, that does not come from the sea, comes from the soil at some point. So if you have an obsessive nature, are use to winning and always want the best, that is the natural place to start. Nowadays, as the founder of Laverstoke Park Farm, Jody Scheckter is better known for his commitment to biodynamic and organic farming, and his herd of water buffalo, which provide the milk for award-winning mozzarella and ice cream. Laverstoke Park Farm has also diversified into hops and ale; sparkling wine and black pudding. While these products are varied, the vision underpinning them is always the same: to be the ‘best-tasting and healthiest, without compromise’.
Jody Scheckter è un uomo che tra le cose che ha fatto nella sua vita c'è stato vincere il campionato del mondo di F1 nel 1979. A Ring racconta alcuni dei passi fondamentali della sua vita. Al volante della Ferrari, la vittoria, insieme a Gilles Villeneuve, come pilota aggressivo, ma intelligente. Il suo ritorno a Monza dove venne incoronato campione. Nella vita come imprenditore dedito a beneficenza e alla produzione di cibo biologico. Un campione di vita e simpatia.
Jody Scheckter’s life has been anything but conventional. Having arrived in Britain from South Africa in 1970, Jody broke into Grand Prix racing in 1972 with McLaren where he caused a stir with his great speed and somewhat wild race craft. Rough edges polished, he’d go on to win the sport’s ultimate prize - the world title - in 1979 while driving for Ferrari, though in some ways that was just the beginning. Less than a year later he’d announce his retirement from F1, turning his attention instead to the world of business, where he went on to have great success, first with his firearms training company and then with his ground-breaking organic farming business. On this week’s show, host Tom Clarkson is treated to a trip down memory lane, with stories of Jody’s 70s rivals and the danger of the era, his relationship with Enzo Ferrari and team mate Gilles Villeneuve, how he applied F1 processes to the business world, and much, much more…

Bem-vindos à série Corridas pra ver de novo, onde contamos sobre corridas do passado que valem serem revistas pelos fãs da Fórmula 1. E hoje vamos relembrar o GP FRANÇA 1979, 8ª etapa da temporada, disputado no dia 1º de julho em Dijon-Prenois. Três acontecimentos marcaram os 35 dias que separaram a etapa anterior em Mônaco, com o GP francês: o anúncio da aposentadoria do campeão mundial de 1976 James Hunt, da Wolff. O cancelamento do GP da Suécia, que deveria acontecer antes da etapa em Dijon, por conta da falta de dinheiro e do desinteresse do público sueco após as mortes de seus pilotos Ronnie Peterson e Gunnar Nilson e o acidente de asa delta de Patrick Depailler, da Ligier, que o deixou de fora da corrida por conta das fraturas que sofreu. Para a corrida francesa, Jody Scheckter da Ferrari, chegava como líder do campeonato após vencer as duas últimas corridas: Bélgica e Mônaco e dar um salto da 5ª para a 1ª posição na tabela, a abrindo 10 pontos sobre seu companheiro Gilles Villeneuve (que agora ocupava a 5ª posição) na briga interna da Ferrari. Mas quem se deu bem nos treinos foi a Renault, que colocou seus dois carros na 1ª fila, com dois pilotos franceses. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- O Botequim GP foi fundado em 2013, e tem como objetivo informar, entreter e aproximar fãs de Fórmula 1 e automobilismo em geral.

Former world champion go-karter, Formula 3 racing driver, founder of Scheckter's Energy Drink and now restauranteur behind the very popular Scheckter’s Raw in Seapoint "Health food has always been a big part of my diet but when I was living in New York launching Scheckter’s OrganicEnergyTM I was blown away by the ingenuity and creativity that was flourishing in the health food scene and a greater passion was sparked in me. When I returned to South Africa, I became frustrated with the local health food offerings. Compared to New York, they were unimaginative and limited. I wanted a place to eat where the food was nutritionally uncompromised, looked as good as it tasted and bursting with original, fresh flavours. Most importantly, I wanted to share that experience with other like-minded, health conscious foodies. I drew inspiration from working on my family’s organic farm in the UK, my travels around the world and my healthy obsession for health food! And so – Scheckter’s RAW Gourmet Health Food was born. A serene space serving uncompromisingly honest, beautiful and innovative healing food made with love." A true down to earth gentleman that has the kindest soul and conscious way of living.

It was only when we rang Jody Scheckter's doorbell that we remembered that the 1979 Formula 1 World Champion was our first ever podcast guest back in 2009. Over 100 podcasts ago we decided that our recordings would be a lot more interesting if we invited a guest along and Jody was an obvious choice. Eight years later and we've finally pinned him down again. We had so many questions from the readers that I binned the script and simply asked as many as possible. Cue stories on his formative years, his arrival in F1, his time at Ferrari, the world championship and his current work at Laverstoke. Enjoy and, as always, let us know what you think.
