The Bio
His outstanding track record still ranks him among the most successful champions but, in terms of personally influencing the way Formula 1 racing developed, Jackie Stewart stands alone. His one-man safety crusade made the sport infinitely safer. His excellent communication skills helped make it more popular.
He also set new standards of professionalism for drivers and was a pioneer in exploiting Formula 1’s commercial potential. His keen intelligence and tireless energy helped, but he would never have been able to exert such influence had he not been a truly great driver. In 1997, that business acumen saw him start his own team – Stewart Grand Prix – which evolved into the current Red Bull outfit.
