Bruce McLaren

Bruce McLaren (August 30, 1937 – June 2, 1970) was a pioneering New Zealand racing driver, engineer, and team founder, celebrated as one of the most innovative figures in motorsport. Born in Auckland, McLaren displayed a passion for cars and engineering from a young age, despite overcoming Perthes disease, which affected his hip and legs. He quickly rose through the ranks of racing, competing in Formula 1 by 1958 and securing his first Grand Prix victory in 1959, making him the youngest winner at the time. In 1963, McLaren founded Bruce McLaren Motor Racing, which would become one of the most successful racing teams in history. McLaren led his team to early success in Can-Am racing, dominating the series with revolutionary car designs. His work in Formula 1 set new standards for engineering and performance, but his career was tragically cut short in 1970 when he died while testing a car at Goodwood Circuit in England. Bruce McLaren’s legacy endures in the McLaren Racing team, which remains a major force in Formula 1 and automotive innovation, carrying forward his spirit of engineering excellence and competitive drive.

1970 FIA Formula One World Championship Season Review

1970 was the year of transition in Grand Prix racing; the season that pitched the old guard against a feisty new breed of racers intent on pushing Formula One forward into the new decade. Nothing symbolised this battle more than the cars used by top contenders: Jacky Ickx’s Ferrari 312B relied on brute force to compensate for its outdated styling, whereas Jochen Rindt’s Lotus 72 showed that radical aerodynamics represented a brave and (potentially) faster way forward. And with the technological battles came a fascinating season’s racing. Jackie Stewart was the defending champion but took nothing for granted. When different drivers won the first four races, Stewart, and the world, knew that the Championship was wide open. Thrilling battles ensued until triumph and tragedy came together in one fatal collision: on the 5th of September 1970 Championship leader Jochen Rindt died during practice at Monza. He was to become the sport’s first posthumous champion.
