He raced a Ferrari #F1 car, at full tilt, in pouring rain, with its nose cone & front wing buckled up, like so (pic). He didn’t make a pit stop to get it fixed. He finished 3rd all the same. His name was Gilles Villeneuve. My brand-new @Motor_Sport column.

#OnThisDay in ’81, at Jarama, in the tricky Ferrari 126CK, Gilles Villeneuve won one of the most gripping #F1 GPs of all time, holding off 4 faster cars to win by 0.22sec, the 5 cars covered by just 1.24sec. I wrote about it for @Motor_Sport 2 weeks ago.

Mere inches in it! 🤏
Lance Stroll and Valtteri Bottas did not hold back in their epic race to the finish line! 🤯
