Крис Амман

He was active in Formula One racing in the s and s and is widely regarded as one of the best F1 drivers never to win a championship Grand Prix. His reputation for bad luck was such that fellow driver Mario Andretti once joked that 'if he became an undertaker, people would stop dying'. Apart from driving, Chris Amon also ran his own Formula One team for a short period in Amon was born in Bulls , and attended Wanganui Collegiate School. He was the only child of wealthy sheep-owners Ngaio and Betty Amon. He learned to drive at the age of six, taught by a farm worker on the family farm. In Amon entered the Cooper for the New Zealand winter series, but was hampered by mechanical problems. However, Scuderia Veloce entered him in a similar car, and, in the rain at Lakeside , he performed well. One of the spectators there was the English racing driver Reg Parnell who persuaded Amon to come to England and race for his team. After nine laps, however, an oil fire ended his race. Amon usually qualified in the midfield and generally outpaced his teammates, who included his good friend Mike Hailwood. His best results of the year were seventh at the French and British Grands Prix. Parnell died from peritonitis in January and his son Tim took over the team. In a series of four pre-season races in Britain and Italy, Amon recorded three fifth places at Snetterton , Silverstone and Syracuse. The rest of his season, however, was blighted by mechanical problems. Amon also competed in a Formula Two race in Stuttgart and won. He was intended to drive the second McLaren M2B but difficulties with engine supply meant that the team never made the intended expansion to two cars. However, an opportunity arose to drive for the Cooper F1 team after Richie Ginther left them for Honda. Amon drove for Cooper at the French GP and was scheduled to drive for them for the rest of the season, until the more successful John Surtees left Scuderia Ferrari to join Cooper and Amon found himself dropped. He failed to qualify. En route to Brands Hatch for the pre-season Formula One Race of Champions , he crashed his road car and, following race practice, had to withdraw. Tragedy then struck the Ferrari team when Bandini died following a crash during the Monaco Grand Prix , Mike Parkes broke both his legs at the Belgian Grand Prix and, in the aftermath, Ludovico Scarfiotti went into temporary retirement. In January Amon had returned home to New Zealand and Australia to compete in the Tasman Series which was used by many of the top Formula One drivers as a warm up series to the World Championship. Ferrari had been interested in the series for several years and in had reengineered 2. Palmer had run world-class times in the Tasman Series, particularly in the Pukekohe practice and Longford race, and was tested in Italy at the same time as Amon by Ferrari, \\\\\\\\\\\[11\\\\\\\\\\\] and ran competitive times at Modena but for whatever reason Ferrari did not compete in series. For the series Ferrari decided to use the 2. After the first race of the F1 season in South Africa , Amon achieved pole positions in three of the following four races at the Spanish , Belgian and Dutch Grands Prix but ever-present mechanical problems meant he secured only a single Championship point from them. From at least ten promising starts that season he was only able to finish five races and score ten Championship points. It was actually much more serious racing than the McLaren dominated Can-Am series in the US in which the big sports cars required few gear changes and were essentially cruised to victory with little real competition, where the Tasman cars were essentially marginally lower power F1 cars, as difficult to drive as GP cars on unforgiving very dangerous narrow tracks. Amon finished with four wins, two thirds and one retirement, but in Formula One his poor luck continued. Despite six starts from top-six positions, he was only able to achieve a third-place at the Dutch GP. Amon had no reason to believe it would be any more dependable than the V12, so although the new engine was clearly more powerful, he decided to leave Ferrari for a Cosworth DFV powered team. Ironically, the new flat engine would become one of the best Formula One engines of the s. Ickx saw Enzo Ferrari had secured huge backing from Fiat who had taken partial ownership of the Marque, and believed Ferrari would be a renewed team and an effective proposition. He also drove in a few Can-Am races. For the Formula One season , Amon made what was to be the first of several moves to smaller, newer teams. March Engineering had been formed the previous year to build custom chassis for Formulas 2 and 3 , but quickly moved into F1, designing and building the March Amon and Siffert were signed as drivers, \\\\\\\\\\\[3\\\\\\\\\\\] with IndyCar driver Mario Andretti making an occasional appearance in a third car. Amon won the pre-season Silverstone International Trophy , but once the F1 season began he found himself prevented from converting good qualifying positions into good results. He qualified and ran second in the Monaco Grand Prix until his suspension failed twenty laps from the finish. This was the race where Amon refused to drive unless his entry number was changed from 18 — the number under which his then teammate Lorenzo Bandini had crashed and died in Monaco — to At that race, Amon set fastest lap at over miles per hour, a lap record which still stands as of , as it was the last race on the full-length Spa-Francorchamps circuit. Amon duplicated his Belgian result at the French Grand Prix ,. By the end of the year, disagreements with March co-founders Mosley and Robin Herd meant that Amon had decided to move to another relatively new team, Matra. In , Amon, now driving for the Matra factory team, once again scored a pre-season victory, this time at the Argentine Grand Prix. Once the Formula One season had begun, he managed to convert a third-place start at the Spanish GP into a third-place podium finish and scored a couple of fifth places in the South African and French GPs. Apart from these results, however, his run of poor F1 returns continued. At the Italian GP he qualified in pole position and despite a poor start to the race looked as if he would capitalise on it — until the visor on his helmet became detached. Amon had to slow to avoid risking a major accident, thereby allowing other drivers to catch and overtake him. He finished the race in sixth place, scoring just one Championship point. During the year Amon also competed in the non-championship Questor Grand Prix at the new Ontario Motor Speedway , where he qualified second and, despite suffering a puncture during the race, managed to finish fourth. In the Formula One season , Amon, again driving for Matra achieved a handful of points-scoring finishes, but only one podium appearance, at the French GP. Here he achieved the fifth and final pole position of his career and was leading the race until a puncture forced him to pit. With the money he had made from motorsport, Amon decided to set up a racing engine firm with former BRM engineer Aubrey Woods. Amon Racing Engines supplied Formula 2 engines to a few drivers, but the company quickly became too expensive to run and was sold to March for a loss. Matra decided to end their participation in Formula One at the end of , so Amon found himself looking to return to March as a driver. The place, however, was given to Jean-Pierre Jarier , purportedly for financial reasons. Their first year in F1 proved to be dismal, however with considerable backing from Martini Rossi they had jumped at the chance to sign Amon, \\\\\\\\\\\[21\\\\\\\\\\\] and allocate David Yorke the former Vanwall and Gulf GT40 Team Manager to run the team and commission two new chassis designs by former Lotus and McLaren mechanic. While McCalls car was built rapidly, testing it was more time consuming and after its non appearance, for the Spanish GP, Amon and team manager David Yorke met with Enzo Ferrari to see if Amon could be released from his contract to develop the new Ferrari B3 for Ickx and Mezarrio, in a supposedly one off GP drive \\\\\\\\\\\[22\\\\\\\\\\\] at Monaco. Yorke rejected the release, and Amon admits he would not have left Ferrari if offered the drive for a season. Amon managed to finish in sixth position. At Monaco the car qualified a useful 12th and chassis felt good \\\\\\\\\\\[23\\\\\\\\\\\] but Chris was unhappy with the car. He decided to concentrate on the undeveloped Gordon Fowell Goral car. He would later claim that the months he spent with the team 'felt like ten \\\\\\\\\\\[seasons\\\\\\\\\\\]'. Tyrrell offered Amon a third car — the — in which to drive the last two races of the season. Gordon Fowell designed the car, the AF , which featured a single central fuel tank, titanium torsion bars and a forward driving position. Structurally, however, it proved to be weak and was not ready for an F1 appearance until the fourth race of the season, the Spanish GP. Amon was only able to qualify 23rd, thanks to brake-disc vibration that only became worse with the tyres for the wet race that followed. Despite cautious driving, a brake shaft finally broke and Amon was forced to retire after 22 laps. Following further work and testing, Amon returned for the Monaco GP and qualified twentieth, but, thanks to mechanical problems, he was unable to start the race. Further problems and illness meant Amon was not able to reappear with the F until the Italian GP , three races from the end of the season, but this time he was unable to qualify. He would later reveal that he had turned down a chance to join the Brabham team earlier in the season. Amon qualified on the front row of three of the four New Zealand rounds and scored a victory at Teretonga in January in rainy conditions by In the Australian rounds, the competition was always harder with more good cars and the locals on their own tracks. At Surfers Paradise , running from the back of the grid he managed to eventually pass Walker by widening the braking zone in the only corner where overtaking was usually possible. Amon brushed the edge of the track on repeated laps, got extra grip and passed Walker to take the lead. In the race, the brilliant effort went for nothing as the Chev engine blew. Amon was never in contention and finished 4th. Amon intended to compete in F in both Europe and the US in but started in only one round of both series, managing a pole in one Shellsport round in the UK and a 4th place overall at the Long Beach GP in a two heat race. He used different Talon F cars for both races. The speed he showed in qualifying for a couple of UK F races encouraged the small Ensign team to give him a race. Apparently a chance meeting with Mo Nunn of Ensign Racing led to the Ensign drive, but in fact Mo Nunn thought his new N a very fast car and did not view the two Dutch drivers favoured by the Dutch HB Security company who sponsored Ensign fast enough. Gijs van Lennep , the European F Champion in a Surtees TS11 who had won Le Mans in and was a very good driver but also one of the last racing aristocrats. At Monza after a long pit stop he finally ran at competitive pace, running 4 laps down but keeping pace with the leading Ferrari T of Niki Lauda for a number of laps. Ironically Amon never raced the N again and the high airboxes had been banned by the time N ran at Jarama the following year, but the flash of testing and driving genius was enough to give Amon another chance. Although the results were unremarkable, he and Nunn worked well together, so Amon joined Ensign for the F1 season. More points then seemed likely from the race until his car lost a wheel 19 laps from the finish and Amon was lucky to escape unhurt from the ensuing accident. He then achieved a third-place grid position start for the Swedish GP using a Nicholson rebuilt Cosworth for the first time and in the race looked as if he would join Tyrrell drivers Jody Scheckter and Patrick Depailler on the podium, until suspension failure threw him from the track after 38 laps. Amon had again been lucky to escape serious injury and decided to miss the next race, the French GP. Rather than risk losing an engine, his team called him in to retire. Amon refused to restart the race and Nunn fired him from the team. Amon declared his retirement from the sport and returned to New Zealand. It was a personal decision However, Walter Wolf contacted Amon and persuaded him to drive for his Wolf—Williams team in the North American races near the end of the season. After recording some promising times in preparation for the Canadian GP , however, Amon was involved in a heavy collision with another car during qualifying and once again was lucky to walk away unharmed. His place was taken by the young and then unknown Canadian Gilles Villeneuve , whom Amon would, later that year, recommend to Enzo Ferrari. In the meantime, Amon returned once again to New Zealand, this time to retire from F1 motor racing for good. Amon came out of retirement for a one-off appearance in the Dunlop Targa New Zealand with motorsport commentator Murray Walker as his navigator. In the early s he became more well known in New Zealand from test-driving vehicles on the TV motoring series Motor Show and later consulted for Toyota New Zealand , tuning the Toyota Corolla and subsequent cars for sale there. He also appeared in TV commercials for the company, where much was made of the acclaim he won from Enzo Ferrari. Amon drove a Toyota Prius for the event. Amon died in Rotorua Hospital on 3 August , aged 73, of cancer. In Formula One, Chris Amon took part in 96 Grands Prix, achieving 5 poles, leading laps in 7 races, reaching the podium 11 times and scoring a total of 83 Championship points. Amon holds the record for the most different makes of car raced by a Formula 1 World Championship driver, with thirteen. The book makes clear one point on which Amon himself disagrees with most commentators, the issue of his bad luck. Amon has pointed out on several occasions that he competed for a decade and a half in Formula One and survived some serious accidents, notably in , whilst others, including friends like Bruce McLaren, suffered serious injury and death. In , motorsport journalist Alan Henry rated Chris Amon as his 13th greatest driver. Reflecting on the racing death of Jim Clark , Amon said: 'If this can happen to Jimmy, what chance do the rest of us have? I think we all felt that. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Briggs S.
