Lorenzo Bandini was an elite professional racing driver who competed in Formula 1 for Ferrari between 1961 and 1967. Across 44 starts in the world championship, he took one victory and eight podium finishes, finishing 13th in the final championship standings of his last season.[1]
Bandini's record was built over seven seasons as a Ferrari regular, racing against a field that ranged from semi-professional entrants to multiple world champions. He finished ahead of Jim Clark, an elite professional and two-time Formula 1 champion, on three occasions, and took one result ahead of Jackie Stewart, who would become a three-time world champion. Against Graham Hill, the 1962 and 1968 Formula 1 champion and an established professional whom he faced regularly, Bandini typically finished behind him. He was closely matched with Clark across their races together, neither driver consistently outpacing the other.[2]
