Jack Brabham Formula One World Championship


Three times Formula One World Champion driver, twice Formula One World Champion Constructor, Indianapolis pioneer, great racing driver, great development driver, visionary engineer, generous mentor, a tough competitor.

Sir Jack was a modest man of few words who accepted success and failure with equal dignity. A unique individual whose achievements will never be matched

A true friend who unselfishly shared his knowledge, experience and recollections, and we will miss him greatly. Sir Jack Brabham’s principals and approach are an inspiration and to be admired.

Rest In Peace Jack,  02.04.1926 – 19.05 2014.
