John Surtees
John Surtees was a British motorcycle and Formula One racing driver, known for being the only individual to win world championships on both two and four wheels. He achieved fame in the 1960s, particularly for his time with Ferrari, where he became the first driver to win a Formula One World Championship in a car painted in blue and white, a color adopted by the team in a show of defiance against the Automobile Club d'Italia.
