Italian Grand Prix 1978

What should have been a triumphant weekend at Monza for Lotus as Mario Andretti was crowned world champion, proved a tragic one as it was completely overshadowed by the death of his team-mate Ronnie Peterson. Peterson, in an old Lotus 78 after a big crash in practice, was involved in a multi-car pile-up on the first corner of the race for which the starter had to take much of the blame. On arrival at hospital it was discovered he had 27 fractures to his legs, and after being operated on he died from complications the next morning. Niki Lauda finished the race in third place but was awarded the win when Andretti and Gilles Villeneuve were penalised 60 seconds for jumping the start.

Featured Driver Geoff Lees
Featured Driver

Geoff Lees was one of those drivers who had the ill fortune to be handed uncompetitive or unreliable cars when his chance in Formula One came, and it had been a hard and self-financed graft to get there. Between 1978 and 1982 he entered 12 races in eight different cars, qualifying five times (in five different chassis) and finishing three. In 1987 an unlikely lifeline was thrown his way when, aged 36, he was recalled to test drive for Williams and, briefly, there seemed a chance he might get a drive, but it never materialised.
