20th September 1969: The Canadian Clashes That Crowned Ickx
from Chequered Past · host Martin Elliot
On this day in Formula One history, Canada twice played host to unforgettable showdowns. In 1969 at Mosport, Jackie Stewart and Jacky Ickx duelled ferociously until contact ended Stewart’s race, handing victory to the young Belgian. A year later at Mont-Tremblant, Stewart looked set to dominate Tyrrell’s debut — only for mechanical failure to open the door for Ickx to claim another famous win, leading Ferrari to a crushing 1–2. We also celebrate the birthday of Juan Pablo Montoya, one of the most fearless racers of his generation, and revisit the 2015 Singapore Grand Prix, where Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari broke Mercedes’ seemingly unshakable grip under the floodlights.Send us Fan MailMusic by #Mubert Music Rendering
