F1 champion loses his driving licence
South African Jody Scheckter, the only African to win an F1 world championship, has lost his driver’s licence in Italy and admitted he won’t be able to pass the test again. Scheckter, now 75, won the 1979 championship with Ferrari, defeating Gilles Villeneuve, whose son later became a champion in 1997. The former racer ended his career in 1980 and transitioned into a successful businessman. He chose to settle in northern Italy after living in England, but his English licence expired, preventing him from driving in Italy. Scheckter, with 10 race wins and 33 podiums in F1, is exploring legal options to resolve his driving predicament in his chosen home country of Italy.
