		The Spanish Grand Prix, however, was still not established and in 1928 and 1929 was run to sportscar regulations, both races being won by Louis Chiron.
		It would be three years until the next Spanish GP at San Sebastian, by which time the Alfa Romeo P3 was the machine to have and Chiron ended his 1933 season with a win, his third Spanish GP triumph.
		The 1981 Spanish Grand Prix will long be remembered as one of the most exciting races of its era as Gilles Villeneuve hurled his cumbersome Ferrari turbo around the track, with a queue of cars trying to pass him.

		In the Mexican Grand Prix Jacky finished second and became runner-up in the driver's world championship.
		After 17 days he was already back in his car at the Monaco Grand Prix, but his Ferrari was no match for the Lotus of Jochen Rindt.
		The car started to improve and at the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim[?] he fought with Rindt for the win, but finished second in the end.

	Formula One History - Wings, Shunts & Ground Effects
		Jackie Oliver's practice crash in the Lotus 49B at Rouen in July 1968, followed by disastrous accidents for both Graham Hill and Jochen Rindt during the 1969 Spanish GP at Montjuich Pack, caused wings to be banned for Monaco and the balance of the championship that year.
		Despite a season marred by protests and concerns about driver safety — Fittipaldi refused to drive in the Spanish GP, which was stopped after 29 laps when a car launched into the crowd, killing four spectators — Lauda took nine poles and won five races to capture his first of three F1 crowns.
		But at the German Grand Prix on 1 August, Lauda crashed his Ferrari at Bergwerk, a 150 mph section of the Nürburgring, in a massive, flaming accident that still brings shivers when viewed to this day.

	Formula1
		Hopes of a Grand Prix swansong with McLaren in 1994, thanks to French engine supplier Peugeot, were disappointed when team boss Ron Denis chose Martin Brundle instead, even though Philippe had a run-out in place of the suspened Mika Hakkinen in the Hungarian Gramd Prix.
		This form earned him a drive with Ferrari for 1959, and he stared his second season with the Italian team by finishing second in the Argentinian Grand Prix, but he was thrown from his car in practice at Monaco and broke an arm, leaving him on the sidelines for the remainder of the season.
		It almost went right in the French Grand Prix at Clermont-Ferrand in 1972 though, as the race was his for the taking when he suffered a puncture and fell back to third place.

		Even in the late 1950s grand prix racing's biggest stars would bow to the commendatore's eccentric behaviour, because Ferrari was already by then a sacred shrine for those obsessed with powerful cars and the glamour of motor racing.
		In Italian sporting circles he is a distinguished personality in his own right, his two spells at Ferrari (from 1974 to '76 and 1992 onwards) sandwiching jobs running Italy's first America's Cup yachting challenge and the 1990 World Cup.
		On that Sunday, Michael Schumacher won the Japanese grand prix to clinch the first Ferrari drivers' championship for 21 years and end a prolonged and at times vitriolic period of soul-searching in Italy.
