Réne Arnoux chalked up his 5th #F1 victory by winning the Canadian GP #OTD 83. One of the fastest in his early career. 149 starts, 7 wins and 22 podiums. Not bad considering he had 70 DNFs.

It's the Birthday of the fabulous Innes Ireland today. Not one for shying away from supporting a mate, Ireland drove in 50 #F1 races and won the USA GP 1961 driving the Lotus 21.

Happy 87th Birthday to Sir Jackie Stewart. “I would have been a much more popular World Champion if I always said what people wanted to hear. I might have been dead, but definitely more popular”.
