By sheer coincidence a couple of days ago I came across the issue of Autosport that was printed on my own birthday: November 5th, 1981 (see picture).
This got me thinking – can we find out what the big F1 news was on the day (or week) of all our birthdays?
So, post your birth date in the comments below and I’ll do my best to rummage through the stacks of Autosports, Motorsports and other motor racing magazines I have piled up to find out what was going on in the F1 world on that day…
An Autosport cover without F1 on it would be unthinkable these days – but on November 5th, 1981 the lead story was the Ivory Coast rally.
But the Formula Ford Festival is mentioned at the bottom of the cover – it was won by Tommy Byrne, a rival of Ayrton Senna. Byrne went on to have a brief F1 career and you can read more of his story in the excellent book “Crashed and Byrned” which came out last year.
Reutemann started the 1982 season with Williams but left abruptly, leaving them with Rosberg, who went on to win the title. On the same page is a story about John Watson turning down a drive with the team for 1982 – Watson remained at Mclaren and fought Rosberg for the title until the final round.
In other F1 news that day, Riccardo Patrese was finally cleared of wrongdoing in the accident that had claimed Ronnie Peterson’s life at Monza in 1978. Race starter Gianni Restelli was also foung not guilty by a court in Milan.
What was the F1 news on your birthday?
Post your birth date below and we’ll see if F1 Fanatic readers can find out what the F1 news was on the day you were born.

The great Jim Clark had won the South African Grand Prix on the first day of January, in his bid to win his second championship, which he would finally get with a perfect score of 54 points (9 points for each victory, only the best six round results could be retained).

Hi Keith – as you said, it could be quite a mountain of work.
How about “On this day…” where you clip various major events that happened 1 Year Ago, 2 Years Ago, 5 Years Ago etc bit like they do in the newspaper.
Though that still strikes me as a bunch of work just for trivia, and I for one would rather you spend your energy on yet more new material for this season than bits of trivia.
But if you’re researching 1978 for Gaz, check out 19th April ;)

I don’t think many finished…. sounds like a classic. Emerson Fittipaldi won the race.. I was born at 1pm, but not sure what time it started and finished.
“The results were overshadowed by a heavy hail storm from Lap 53, which caused 3 out of the top 4 cars to aquaplane and crash in the same corner, bringing an early finish to the race, and a significant absence on the podium”

March 24, 1986- Piquet won his home race the day before. Prost would win the title, and the New York Giants would win their first Super Bowl the following January :)
This year the season starts shortly after my birthday, so it’s a good time in that sense. I must note that for my birthday in 1992 I got the video game Super Monaco GP for Sega Genesis, which gave me an early intro to F1 and paved the way for my current level of interest.

Looks like I am the lone 18 August 1973 baby. And boy do I feel old, reading all of these 80 & 90’s dates !
Since my birthday is in the middle of the season, something interesting might have happened around that time, you never know.

Hmmmm, nowt I can find for 15th November 1980, however these took place on my subsequent birthdays:
1987:
Riccardo Patrese debuts for Williams at Australia, for F1’s 452nd GP. Gerhard Berger and Michele Alboreto made it a Ferrari 1-2 (woo! funnily enough I know I wasn’t in the UK to watch the race at that time) with Theiry Boutsen 3rd in the Bennetton. It was the 93rd win for Ferrari as a constructor, and it was a nice sunny day.
2008:
F1fanatic publishes 2008 F1 season in statistics p1/2 :D
Okay, now I could’ve just pratted on moer about the Australian GP and made it look like I knew exactly what I was talking about – but I’ll just give you the link so everyone can just look up what happened on their birthday!
http://www.statsf1.com/ – then goto “Diary”. It’s pretty awful and inefficient usability as you have to keep clicking to get to the date you want.
Clive
7th March 2009, 20:07
Thanks for the link, Loki. I looked it up and can say that I have the same birthday as Hans Binder (whom I had completely forgotten). This is what the Wilipedia has to say about him:
Hans Binder (born 12 June 1948 in Zell am Ziller, Innsbruck) is an Austrian former Formula One driver who raced for the Ensign, Wolf, Surtees and ATS teams.
He won the European Formula Ford Championship in 1972 and moved into Formula 2 in 1976. During this year he raced at his home Grand Prix and the Japanese GP. In 1977 he moved to the Surtees team and also raced three times for ATS. He then returned to Surtees before the end of the season. In 1978 he failed to qualify for his home grand prix with ATS before disappearing from the F1 scene.

The day after Fittipaldi’s British GP win at Brands Hatch. July 16 was a day of some rather significant disasters (apart from myself being born):
– The start of the East-West Schism
– World’s first parking meter installed in Oklahoma City
– Manhattan Project: Beginning of the Atomic Age. US successfully detonates a plutonium-based test nuclear weapon
– Watergate Scandal
– Saddam Hussein’s rise to power
The list goes on and on :)

Interestingly – or not. I was born in December 1979, and my mum was pregnent at the British Grand Prix at Silvstone in July of that year and thinks that is the reason I liked F1 so much. That was also the race Williams won their first Grand Prix.

To Clive and all the other “oldies” – if you were young when Rock’n’Roll was born, you’re still young. To put it a different way – if Dvorak was still kicking when you were born, then you’re OLD!
I think I will relish answering this question myself. I suggest that (at least some) others do the same and post it here. Thanks for the inspiration, Keith!

On my birthday, F1 cognoscenti were probably still discussing Nelson Piquet Sr.’s victory at his home race, which opened the 1986 season three days earlier (he took fastest lap en route).
Less likely to have been discussed were Riccardo Patrese getting the 15th-fastest lap for a then-record-breaking 10th time and Piercarlo Ghinzani getting the 23rd-fastest lap for a then-record-breaking 5th time.
Probably not the most memorable race ever, come to think of it…

6th of May, 1973.
A rather horrible year for auto racing in the States. The month of May was absolutely horrific for that years running of the Indianapolis 500. 3 deaths, many injuries including spectators. In F1, Stewart won his final championship, but lost his teamate and friend Cevert at Watkins Glen. Tyrell pulled out of the race, giving the constructor’s title to Lotus, and Stewart announced his retirement.
I only ever remember 1 GP being held on my birthday sometime in the mid 80’s, maybe Imola? I believe Prost won, but not 100% sure.
I also remember a few years ago Super Aguri pulled out of F1 on my birthday too. I don’t think auto racing likes me very much… :P

19th April 1978
It was a Wednesday, apparently, so I can’t imagine much happened. Indeed, a quick check of the Wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1978_Formula_One_season#Season_review) reveals an amazingly spread-out season: 15th January (Argentina) to 8th October (Canada)
Seems the European Grands Prix were the standard 2 weeks apart by the fly-away races were sometimes four or even five weeks between green flags. Kinda unheard of these days, with back-to-back weekends and fanatics getting tetchy whenever there’s a Sunday without racing. :)
Since I’m not a zealot of 1970’s racing I’m intruiged by the destinations too: not one but TWO races in USA, plus Canada. Oh how things have changed (for the worse). There was even a Yank World Champion (Andretti).
And Ford powered 15 of the 19 teams on the grid. So:
A) holy crap – NINETEEN TEAMS!!!
B) Only Ferrari, Brabham (Alfa Romeo), Ligier (Matra) and Renault did not run with a blue oval under the hood
C) That means names such as McLaren, Lotus and Williams were powered by Uncle Henry at the time.
I’d heard the Cosworth DFV was legendary, but I’m still surprised.
1978 was also a bygone era of smaller, independent teams. Count how many of the following y’all have ever heard of:
Wolf-Ford
Fittipaldi-Ford
Shadow-Ford
Surtees-Ford
Ensign-Ford
Martini-Ford
Hesketh-Ford
ATS-Ford
Theodore-Ford
Merzario-Ford
There’s some famous surnames in there, which explains a bit. But seriously, Wolf (Canada!), ATS (Germany) and Theodore (Hong Kong!) – ***.
I feel some background reading is required! :)

21st May 1976. First time I saw an F1 car was when I was like 15 and I didn’t like it. It just didn’t look like a real car. But then again I was in Uganda, see. The commonest car was a three door British Aid Land Rover!
5 years later, I would be combing F1 car specs and all trying to understand the whole thing. It was as if I got an F1 injection and haven’t stopped since.

Also Keith I sent you an email a while ago about writing guest articles for the site, but you never replied.

19th of October, 1987. Black Monday.
In the world of F1, it was the day after the Mexico Grand Prix. Nigel Mansell had won it, giving him a fighting chance of becoming that year’s WDC. An accident in qualifying in the next round, the Japanese Grand Prix, put him out of that race and the season finale at Australia, handing Nelson Piquet his third and final championship.

My birthday is the 29th of March, 1994, Near the start of the season.
I was born 2 days after the Brazilian GP, tho now it coincides mainly with the Australian Grand Prix(did so in 2009, but I most unfortunately missed the race because I was holidaying in the Sunderbans delta near Bay of Bengal, at the time.)

January 16 1987. It’s usually in the off season so the only race I could find that happened on my birthday was the 1955 Argentine GP at Buenos Aries. Fangio won from pole in his Mercedes in a race that was the equal hottest ever (40 degrees C). Fangio was one of only two drivers who managed to finish the race solo which is a pretty good effort as it took three hours to complete.

If only I’d known that was actually going to happen instead of me dreaming about it happening back then I could of been more prepared financially but it was worth it.

I’ve just discovered from Wikipedia that Spanish GP was disputed outside F1 rules and results as a non-championship race, interesting!

I was born April 7, 1954–the same exact day as Jackie Chan.
Jim Clark died on my 14th birthday, April 7, 1968, and I remember reading the news in the newspaper the next day quite clearly. We lived in Chicago, but I’d become a big F1 fan after the superb 1966 movie “Grand Prix,” with James Garner and Yves Montand came out.
Two years later in 1970 my family spent a summer in Germany, and I talked my folks into taking us to Hockenheim for the German Grand Prix, moved that year from Nurburgring because of safety concerns. The course was still run way into the woods at that time, almost 8-10 miles long in total. I walked along the interior forest until I came to the stretch of the woods where Jim Clark’s F2 car had careened into some trees. The damage was still there. The winner of the race was Jochen Rindt, and two races later, practicing at Monza, he was killed in an accident. That was a deadly era in F1 racing.
I was also born the week the very first issue of Sports Illustrated came out, with Eddie Murphy of the Braves on the cover. And this past week half the newsroom at SI was laid off because journalism like that just doesn’t thrive any more.
