If you're going to win just one F1 race...

Ask F1 drivers which Grand Prix they would choose if their track record included only a single win, and it's likely that Monaco would be mentioned more than any other race.

Such is the case for F1 veteran Jarno Trulli, born on this day in 1974, who stacked up during his 15-year career in the sport 252 races, 11 podiums but a solitary triumph in the Principality of Monaco in 2004.

And save for a brief one-lap respite at the front of the field due to pit stop, it was a commanding lights-to-flag victory for the Italian who preceded Ferrari's Rubens Barrichello and BAR's Jenson Button.

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.
