Didier Pironi
Didier Pironi was a French Formula 1 driver known for his time with Ferrari in the early 1980s. He gained notoriety during the 1982 season, which was marked by a controversial incident with his teammate Gilles Villeneuve at the Imola Grand Prix. Pironi's unexpected overtaking of Villeneuve, who was reportedly under the impression they had a team agreement to maintain positions, led to a fierce rivalry between the two. Tragically, Pironi's career was cut short after a serious accident in 1987, which left him unable to race again.
