On September 19, 1971, Formula One saw history at Mosport Park when the Canadian Grand Prix became the first World Championship race to be stopped with the red flag. Jackie Stewart had already secured his second world title, but torrential rain and fog turned the race into chaos, cutting it short after 64 laps. Stewart took the win, Ronnie Peterson claimed second, and American star Mark Donohue earned his first F1 podium on his debut.
We also celebrate the birthday of Brazilian racer Cristiano da Matta, whose career spanned from CART glory to a brief spell in Formula One, and revisit the 1954 Berlin Grand Prix at AVUS, where Karl Kling’s victory for Mercedes in front of a vast home crowd symbolised Germany’s racing revival.
