In order to celebrate the 50th anniversary of John Surtees’ 1964 Formula One World Championship triumph, Ferrari Premium Partner Shell proudly presented John Surtees and Scuderia Ferrari driver Kimi Raikkonen at the fabled Goodwood Festival of Speed Hillclimb on Sunday 29 June 2014.
Two world championship winning Ferrari drivers ascended the hill in formation in the cars they won their respective titles in — John Surtees in his 1964 Ferrari 158 and Kimi Räikkönen in his 2007 Ferrari F2007. Surtees’ first race was in the sidecar of his father’s Vincent, but they were disqualified when officials found out that John was just 14 years old. Like Kimi, John won his championship in his first season with Ferrari.
