January 28 marked the 73rd anniversary of Jean-Pierre Wimille's death. Between 1946 and 1948, the Frenchman was the best Grand Prix racing driver of the time.

This article was published in 1989 on the fortieth anniversary of his death and tells the story of the short but highly successful life of the French racing driver.
