John Rhodes was a British single-seater racing driver who competed in Formula 1 at the established professional level. His sole indexed season came in 1965, when he started one World Championship Grand Prix for Cooper-Climax at Silverstone in July, driving a car provided by veteran racer Bob Gerard.[1]
Rhodes finished 13th in the 1965 Formula 1 championship standings. He retired from the race itself on lap 39 with ignition problems in his Cooper T60 Climax. That single start placed him in a World Championship field that mixed amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals; Cooper-Climax itself fielded 50 drivers across its racing programme, among them established professional Stirling Moss.[2]
