On this day in 2003, Father Cornelius Horan - a rebel and defrocked Roman Catholic priest without much of a cause - was looking to generate some good exposure for the Bible and himself, and he certainly got it when he ran down Silverstone's Hanger Straight in the middle of a pack of F1 cars!
While his waving banner, "Read the Bible - The Bible is always right", was hardly noticed, his antics did succeed in spicing up the race after a Safety Car period reset proceedings.
Horan was removed from the track, arrested and sentenced to two months in jail, while Ferrari's Rubens Barrichello went on to take the checkered flag after a spirited drive, defeating on the day Williams' Juan Pablo Montoya and McLaren's Kimi Raikkonen.
