	Formula One
		Formula One, or Grand Prix racing is the best known single-seater auto racing class, which involves an annual world championship.
		Historically, the series evolved from pre-war European Grand Prix racing[?] of the 1920s and 1930s.
		The sport is lesser-known in the United States than either their mostly-domestic open-wheeler racing series (at the moment there are two major ones, IRL and CART) or NASCAR, but in terms of budgets and global TV audiences F1 is bigger than all three.

	Sandcastle V.I. - Auto Racing Classics - Dan Gurney: All American Racer / Part 3
		Fittingly, the new team's cars would be called "Eagles." The Grand Prix Eagle had many teething problems, including late delivery of the custom-built Gurney-Weslake V-12 engine.
		Although on an overall basis the Eagle Grand Prix program was not successful, Dan Gurney can justifiably be proud of what he was able to accomplish against the heavily financed factory teams in Europe.
		His victory in the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix still stands as a remarkable achievement considering the small size and limited resources of the All American Racers team at the the time.

	ESPN.com - Auto Racing - American F1 trail begins with Hill
		INDIANAPOLIS -- Among the 19 starters at the 1961 United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, there were no fewer than eight Americans, but the driver everyone wanted to see -- the man who a month before had become the country's first World Champion -- was not among them.
		Before a Grand Prix he would pace up and down, puffing on endless cigarettes, but once he was in the car the nerves disappeared.
		In 1961 Ferrari dominated with the 156 "sharknose" machines, yet not a single example survives, and Hill was always sad about that, it being the car which took him to the world championship.

		The 1959 races (and the 1960 Argentine and Italian Grands Prix) were won with somewhat bulkier-looking T51.
		Cooper failed to win a single Grand Prix in 1961---the Climax 1 1/2 liter engines were no match for the Ferraris.

		He'd already finished 8th in the 1961 United States Grand Prix in a "rent-a-ride" Cooper (no mean feat in those days) and realized that there was no way to be competitive in "last year's racer" in F.1.
		When Penske tried to order a new Cooper for the '62 season, he quickly learned that while renting a ride in a factory leftover was one thing, buying a car equal to that of the factory team drivers was something else.
		He then called the head of the USAC technical committee and explained what he had in mind; assured that his concept met the rules (at least the letter of them) he proceeded to buy Cunningham's wrecked Cooper and set to work.

		As he returned to the States in the early 1980s to concentrate on Champ Car competition, Andretti teamed with his son Michael and Philippe Alliot to compete at the 24 Hours of LeMans in 1983, where they qualified and finished third, the highest finish for a non-factory team.

		With its front suspension coil-springs and dampers tucked away inboard, within the bodywork, and 4-cylinder Coventry Climax FPF Mark II engine tightly cowled by a glassfibre panelling behind the driver’s cockpit, this latest Lotus was the smallest, lightest and neatest Grand Prix car yet seen.
		It was driven by Jim Clark to finish 4th at Modena, and was then loaned by Chapman to the Rob Walker team for Stirling Moss to drive in the Italian GP at Monza.
		The car was subsequently used by Trevor Taylor to come 2nd in the 1961 Rand GP at Kyalami, Johannesburg, before the Yorkshireman scored the only Formula 1 race win of his career driving ‘933’ to victory in the 1962 Cape Grand Prix at Killarney, South Africa.

		According to the New York State Department of Tourism, the 18 to 20 racing weekends a year at the circuit just southwest of Watkins Glen are responsible for 23 million dollars of revenue annually.

	Innes Ireland - Grand Prix Racing - the whole story
		After being fired in less than gracious circumstances by Lotus boss Colin Chapman a few weeks after scoring the marque's first GP success, Ireland agreed on the spur of the moment to join the UDT-Laystall team operated by Ken Gregory and Alfred Moss (father of Stirling) for the 1962 season.
		A hedonist, this son of a Kircudbright veterinary lived life in the fast lane throughout his Grand Prix career.
		But it would be an unfair exaggeration to say that his life passed in a blur of women, booze and cigarette haze, for such a verdict short-changes his unquestionable flair and all-round ability behind the wheel.
