1970 Lotus
Jochen was German-born but represented Austria during his career.
The 1970 season started badly for Rindt when he crashed at the Spanish GP after the rear aerofoil collapsed, putting him into hospital. During practice for Monza 1970 ‘something broke’ on the car, which veered at enormous speed into the barrier. The front of the Lotus was totally destroyed and Rindt was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital in Milan. Rindt became the sport’s first and to date only posthumous World Champion.
Monza 2020 marks 50 years since his death
