Edd StrawHOST
... there's a Shell petrol station.
Edd StrawHOST
And of course, as everybody knows, in 1957, the Pescara Grand Prix, Jack Brabham got some fuel from a petrol station 'cause he ran out.
Edd StrawHOST
So there we go.
Edd StrawHOST
It wasn't open.
JohnAUDIENCE
and built that.
JohnAUDIENCE
The greatest sporting achiever ever in the world that'll never ever be unequalled was Jack Brabham.
JohnAUDIENCE
Yeah.
JohnAUDIENCE
He'll build himself, design himself, and won the World Manufacturers and Racing title.
Will BuxtonHOST
And then his engine, I think it was a fuel pump issue or something, last lap.
Will BuxtonHOST
And he ultimately finished third and was passed out of Parabolica down the straight by John Surtees and Jack Brabham.
Will BuxtonHOST
But he went a lap down.
Will BuxtonHOST
He regained the lap, passed the field, took the lead.
Michael LamonatoHOST
title, defeated Nicky Louder at McLaren.
Michael LamonatoHOST
Prior to that, should have written this down somewhere, shouldn't I? Oh, you know who it was? Denny Hulme beat Jack Brabham at Jack Brabham's team in 1956, maybe? Yeah.
Michael LamonatoHOST
I'd say we're getting niche, but
Rob JamesHOST
you're stretching the memory of Netflix viewers.
Josh ParsonsGUEST
But, yeah, you've got to keep coming back to see it all, Paul.
Paul TarseyHOST
Now, one name that is going to be celebrated over the weekend is Jack Brabham.
Paul TarseyHOST
He is the honoree, as our American cousins will call it.
Paul TarseyHOST
And, I mean, sadly, obviously no longer with us, but Jack actually raced at Revival in period.
Tony JohnsonHOST
But, of course, his enduring legacy comes from the cars he initially built for himself.
Tony JohnsonHOST
In 1968, in his McLaren, he won the Belgian Grand Prix, to become one of just three drivers alongside Jack Brabham and Dan Gurney to win a world championship race in a car built by himself.
Tony JohnsonHOST
The following year, that McLaren team finished third in the championship.
Tony JohnsonHOST
In all, four wins.

ToddHOST
A very different time, but nonetheless.
ToddHOST
Jack Brabham, Graham Hill, again, only Triple Crown winner of all time, Lance Macklin, Briggs Cunningham, Dan Gurney, Phil Hill, these were co-drivers to Sir Sterling Moss.
ToddHOST
And all these would be in the, you know, Hall of Fame equivalent if we had that for racing.
SilasHOST
Yeah, and so like early on in Sterling Moss's F1 career, and we'll see that this is kind of like a pattern that occurs in his racing career in general.
25 MINS LATER
ToddHOST
The Rally in Monte Carlo that he ran earlier in his career.
ToddHOST
He did the Bathurst 1000 in the 70s.
ToddHOST
I mean, like with Jack Brabham as his co-driver.
SilasHOST
Which is great, which I think Jack Brabham was one of his fierce competitors when he was racing in Formula One.
Mark BourisHOST
Oh, really?
Mark WebberGUEST
Dad loved Sir Jack Brabham.
Mark BourisHOST
Wow.
Mark WebberGUEST
Sir Jack Brabham was Dad's hero, so-
Mark BourisHOST
That's going back a while.
Mark WebberGUEST
Exactly.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
And he passed away recently, if you recall.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
Jack Brabham from Australia in 1959 scored his first Grand Prix win, driving a Cooper.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
And, you know, people complain about lack of American drivers in this race, the 1959 Monaco Grand Prix.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
There were four American drivers, Phil Hill, Harry Schell, Mastin Gregory and Pete Lovely.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
And of course, Villeneuve's first Grand Prix win came in 1978 on his home track in Montreal, which as we all know is now named in his memory.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
And mention must be made here of perhaps the most famous victory in the streets of Monte Carlo.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
This was in the 1970 race when Jochen Rindt of Austria took the lead from Australian Jack Brabham on the last corner of the last lap.
Nasser HameedCORRESPONDENT
And this is highly recommended on YouTube.
