Francois Hesnault secured a small place in F1 history came in his final outing, which was in a Renault at the 1985 German Grand Prix, when his car was the first to be fitted with an onboard camera - it was also the last race where a team entered three cars. He retired soon after, having suffered a heavy crash in testing with Brabham.
