  • Scalfaro Launches John Surtees Watch Edition
    SCALFARO LAUNCHES JOHN SURTEES WATCH EDITION A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE AN ICON OF MOTORSPORT HISTORY 2014 marks the not only the 80th birthday of racing legend JOHN SURTEES, but also the 50th anniversary of his groundbreaking 1964 Formula One World Championship title making him the only man ever to have won world championships on both two and four wheels. Between 1956 and 1960, Surtees won seven World Championships and six Isle of Man TTs on 350cc and 500cc MV Agusta motorcycles. Stepping from bikes and into Formula One cars, he drove for Lotus, BRM, Cooper and Honda and then, from 1963, for Ferrari. After winning the Nürburgring and Monza 1000km races in Enzo’s sports cars, he took the Formula One World Championship in 1964 in a Ferrari 158. Winning world championships with both bikes and cars is a feat unmatched by any other racer. Inspired by JOHN SURTEES‘ exceptional motorsport career and life, watch manufacture SCALFARO have created the JOHN SURTEES EDITION of mechanical Swiss watches. This extraordinary edition was designed in close collaboration with JOHN SURTEES who supplied genuine historic parts from his 1960 MV Agusta 500ccm championship bike as well as his 1964 Ferrari 158 championship F1 car. The parts have been sympathetically integrated into the watch cases, so that each edition contains their authentic DNA thus a direct link to JOHN SURTEES’ unique career. The sapphire crystal proudly carries the JOHN SURTEES signature as well as the helmet logo of the HENRY SURTEES FOUNDATION* part of the proceeds from this edition will be donated to the foundation set up by John Surtees following the tragic death of his son Henry whilst competing in Formula 2 race in 2009 aged just 18 years old.

    ACES WILD ACES WILD The Story of the British Grand Prix THE STORY OF THE Peter Miller Motor racing is one of the most 10. 3. BRITISH GRAND PRIX exacting and dangerous sports in the world today. And Grand Prix racing for Formula 1 single-seater cars is the RIX GREATS toughest of them all. The ultimate ambition of every racing driver since 1950, when the com­ petition was first introduced, has been to be crowned as 'World Cham­ pion'. In this, his fourth book, author Peter Miller looks into the back­ ground of just one of the annual qualifying rounds-the British Grand Prix-which go to make up the elusive title. Although by no means the oldest motor race on the English sporting calendar, the British Grand Prix has become recognised as an epic and invariably dramatic event, since its inception at Silverstone, Northants, on October 2nd, 1948. Since gaining World Championship status in May, 1950 — it was in fact the very first event in the Drivers' Championships of the W orld-this race has captured the interest not only of racing enthusiasts, LOONS but also of the man in the street. It has been said that the supreme test of the courage, skill and virtuosity of a Grand Prix driver is to w in the Monaco Grand Prix through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo and the German Grand Prix at the notorious Nürburgring. Both of these gruelling circuits cer­ tainly stretch a driver's reflexes to the limit and the winner of these classic events is assured of his rightful place in racing history.

The live stream, and the ITV coverage, will be free to air and will take you right into the heart of the event with all the race action, interviews with the drivers and coverage of the new rally stages, the Shootout for the fastest lap of the circuit, and a sensational celebration of 70 years of Formula 1.
