He was considered one of the best drivers of all time, despite the fact that he was never able to win a world title in Formula One, finishing second four times.

He was the first British driver to win a national race and in 1961 he was named Athlete of the Year. But it wasn’t just in F1 that he was dominant because he won a total of 212 races in various series. He retired from racing in 1962 after suffering such a serious accident on the Goodwood track that he was in a coma for a month and partially paralyzed for half a year.

He has been struggling with health issues for some time, having withdrawn from the public since 2018 due to his deteriorating health.
