Profile
After becoming the youngest ever 350cc motorcycle World Champion, Johnny swapped across to four wheels with a drive in Formula Two in 1980. By 1982 he was a front-runner, only losing out on the title to works March team-mate Corrado Fabi when dropped scores were taken into consideration. His Formula One debut came in 1983 when he joined the little Theodore team, amazingly finishing in sixth place in his second race, at Long Beach. No more points followed, and he moved to Toleman for 1984, but his single-seater career was cut short with a leg-breaking shunt at Brands Hatch. Subsequently, Johnny has won numerous titles in touring car racing in both Italy and Germany.
