Biography

Clay Regazzoni Biography

Daniele Audetto 2021 Beyond the Grid interview

Clay Regazzoni and Niki Lauda before the start of the 1976 German F1 GP

Clay Regazzoni was one of the most legendary Formula One drivers of all time. He was born on September 5th, 1939, in Lugano, Switzerland. From a very young age, Regazzoni was fascinated by cars and racing, and his passion led him to become one of the most successful drivers in the history of Formula One.

Regazzoni began his career in motorsports in 1963, racing in Formula Three and Formula Two events. In 1970, he made his debut in Formula One, driving for Ferrari. In his first season, Regazzoni won his first Grand Prix in Italy and finished second in the Drivers' Championship. He continued to race for Ferrari for five seasons, earning six Grand Prix victories and finishing in the top three of the Drivers' Championship twice.

In 1974, Regazzoni moved to the newly formed Ensign team, where he continued to impress, finishing on the podium at the Monaco Grand Prix. He returned to Ferrari in 1975, where he won two more races and finished third in the Drivers' Championship. The following year, Regazzoni won the United States Grand Prix, helping Ferrari secure the Constructors' Championship.

Regazzoni's F1 career was not without its setbacks. He suffered a serious accident at the 1979 United States Grand Prix, which left him paralyzed from the waist down. However, he remained active in motorsports, serving as a driver coach and team manager.

Regazzoni's passion for racing continued until his death on December 15th, 2006, in a car accident in Italy. He will always be remembered as one of the most talented and successful drivers in the history of Formula One. His legacy lives on, and his contribution to the sport will always be appreciated by F1 fans around the world.
