The History Of Formula One: F1's 70th Birthday
1. Giuseppe Farina Winning The First Ever F1 Race 2. Mercedes' sleek F1 cars, which challenged Ferrari (Image thanks to google) |
Mercedes innovated their cars to be faster with their sleek, smooth, bodies.
Mercedes then left all Motorsports after the big crash at Le Mans 1955, which killed 83 spectators, the driver, and injured about 180 more people. The cars became faster and slicker - Lotus were the innovators when they introduced aerodynamics that provided great downforce and largely increased cornering speeds. Safety still was not very good, Sir Jackie Stewart pushed the FIA to improve safety features after the death of his friend and team mate during practice of the 1973 US Grand Prix. Legends came and left the sport. James Hunt dominated on track, and had a extreme rivalry with Niki Lauda. Both would become world champions. Niki Lauda had a horrific crash at the Hockenheimring
