When just a single win did if for Keke

40

Keke Rosberg won just one race in his championship year, the Swiss Grand Prix held on this day in 1982.

Motor racing was still covered by an outright ban in Switzerland at the time, enforced by the country after the 1955 Le Mans disaster.

It's F1 event was therefore held in France, at Dijon-Prenois, where Rosberg's Williams overhauled Renault's Alain Prost with just two laps to go, clinching his first Grand Prix win and setting himself up nicely for the world title.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
