Photo Gallery «Patrick Tambay - great talent without the corresponding F1 successes»

French racing driver Patrick Tambay was not one of the most successful drivers in Formula 1, even though he was not lacking in talent. However, 114 Grand Prix starts resulted in two victories, both with Ferrari. If he had been a little luckier in life when choosing his team and car, significantly more successes would have been possible. This racing driver portrait tells the story of the Frenchman, who died in December 2022, illustrated with images from the time.
