29th June 1980: The Aussie That Broke French Hearts

from Chequered Past · host Martin Elliot

On this day in Formula 1 history, Alan Jones delivered a masterclass at the 1980 French Grand Prix, overcoming a French front-row lockout to claim a crucial victory for Williams at Paul Ricard. As the French crowd cheered their home favourites, it was the Australian who had the last word — controlling the race with calm authority and cementing his credentials as a championship contender.We also celebrate the birthday of Harry Schell, the first American to start a Formula One Grand Prix. A dashing figure in post-war racing, Schell’s career spanned the sport’s early golden age, earning him a reputation for style, speed, and sportsmanship.And we fast-forward to 1997, where Michael Schumacher stormed to victory at Magny-Cours in a commanding drive that saw him lead from pole to flag — a result that intensified the championship battle.Three stories, three eras, one unforgettable date in motorsport history.Send us Fan MailMusic by #Mubert Music Rendering
