Despite winning three World Championships and helping to design and build cars which made champions of many others the name of John “Jack” Brabham is perhaps not as well-known as it should be.

Before Mark Webber, he was the personification of “Aussie Grit” in the world of World Championship Grand Prix racing.

From his early days on dirt tracks, through early forays in Europe with Cooper to his glory days with the Brabham Racing Organisation this is Jack’s story.
