'''Gianclaudio Giuseppe '''"'''Clay'''"''' Regazzoni''' ({{IPA|it|dʒaŋˈklaudjo dʒuˈzɛppe reɡatˈtsoːni}}; 5 September 1939 – 15 December 2006) was a Swiss [[racing driver]] and [[sports broadcasting|broadcaster]], who competed in [[Formula One]] from {{F1|1970}} to {{F1|1980}}. Regazzoni was runner-up in the [[Formula One World Drivers' Championship]] in {{F1|1974}} with [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]], and won five [[Formula One Grands Prix|Grands Prix]] across 11 seasons.

His first win was the [[1970 Italian Grand Prix|Italian Grand Prix]] at [[Autodromo Nazionale Monza|Monza]] in his debut season, driving for [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]]. He remained with the Italian team until {{F1|1972}}. After a single season with [[British Racing Motors|BRM]], Regazzoni returned to Ferrari for a further three years from {{F1|1974}} (where he was the runner-up to  [[Emerson Fittipaldi]]) to {{F1|1976}}. After finally leaving Ferrari at the end of 1976, Regazzoni joined the [[Ensign Racing|Ensign]] and [[Shadow Racing Cars|Shadow]] teams, before moving to [[Williams Grand Prix Engineering|Williams]] in {{F1|1979}}, where he took the British team's first ever Grand Prix victory, the [[1979 British Grand Prix]] at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]].

Regazzoni was replaced by [[Carlos Reutemann]] at Williams for [[1980 Formula One season|1980]] and moved back to Ensign. Following an accident at the [[1980 United States Grand Prix West]], he was left paralyzed from the waist down, ending his career in Formula One. Regazzoni did not stop racing, and he competed in the [[Paris–Dakar rally]] and [[Sebring 12 Hours]] using a hand-controlled car during the late 1980s and early 1990s. In 1996, Regazzoni became a commentator for Italian TV. He was known as a hard-charging racer, sometimes inconsequential. [[Jody Scheckter]] stated that if "he'd been a cowboy he'd have been the one [[Black and white hat symbolism in film|in the black hat]]".<ref name="SAMotor">{{cite journal | ref = SAM1275 | journal = SA Motor | title = Motorsport: Still in the land of the Hamburger | page = 46 | author-link = Jody Scheckter | last = Scheckter | first = Jody | publisher = Scott Publications | location = Cape Town, South Africa | date = December 1975 }}</ref> Regazzoni died in a car accident in Italy on 15 December 2006.

==Personal and early life==
Gianclaudio Regazzoni was born in [[Mendrisio]], [[Switzerland]], on 5 September 1939, a few days after the start of the [[Second World War]]. Regazzoni grew up in [[Porza]], in the [[Cantons of Switzerland|Canton]] of [[Ticino]], part of the [[Italian language|Italian speaking]] region of Switzerland. He was married to Maria Pia, with whom he had two children: Alessia and Gian Maria.<ref name="JPM75" />

==Racing career==

===Pre-Formula One===

====Early racing and Formula Three====
Regazzoni first started competing in car races in 1963,<ref name="indy_obit">{{cite news| title =Obituary – Clay Regazzoni| work =The Independent| url =https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/clay-regazzoni-428972.html| date =18 December 2006| access-date =1 February 2014}}</ref> at the comparatively late age of 24. Many of his early motorsport experiences were across the border in Italy, Switzerland having banned motor racing following the [[1955 Le Mans disaster|horrific accident]] at the [[1955 24 Hours of Le Mans]] race. His first outings were in his own [[Austin-Healey Sprite]], with which he took two podium finishes from only his first three races.<ref name="indy_obit" /> This instant success encouraged Regazzoni to move up to a [[Mini Cooper]] for the 1964 club racing season.

1965 saw Clay Regazzoni behind the wheel of an open-wheeled car for the first time, as he entered the European [[Formula Three]] championship with a [[Brabham]]. This first season brought moderate success, and improving form during 1966 (this time driving a [[De Tomaso]]) brought him to the attention of ambitious Italian constructor [[Tecno (motorsport)|Tecno]]. Tecno offered Regazzoni the use of one of their F3 chassis for 1967, where his reliable, fast performances earned him the offer of a works Tecno drive in [[Formula Two]] for the following year. Despite this, Regazzoni continued to drive in Formula Three events during 1968 and, not for the last time, was lucky to survive a major accident. Exiting the chicane during the [[Monaco Grand Prix]] Formula 3 support race, Regazzoni lost control of his car and collided heavily with the crash barrier. The diminutive size of the Formula 3 machine allowed it to pass under the rail, the sharp metal edge of the [[Armco barrier|Armco]] slicing across the top of the open cockpit. Regazzoni managed to duck down low enough in the driving seat for the rail to pass above him, missing his head by a tiny margin. The car eventually came to a halt when the [[roll hoop]], behind Regazzoni's head and significantly lower than the top of his helmet, wedged itself underneath the barrier.<ref name="indy_obit" />

====Formula Two====
In Formula Two, Regazzoni had found the ideal partner in Tecno. His hard-charging style perfectly matched the forward-thinking Tecno ambitions, and Regazzoni quickly developed a reputation as a tough competitor. Regazzoni was implicated in the death of young British driver Chris Lambert at the 1968 Formula Two Dutch Grand Prix. Some observers accused Regazzoni, who was running well up the field, of deliberately running Lambert's [[Brabham]] off the track while lapping him. Lambert lost control and crashed into a bridge. Even though Regazzoni had been fully exonerated at the subsequent inquest, rumours persisted for many years afterwards.<ref name="indy_obit" /> Lambert's father pursued a private action against Regazzoni, which dragged on for five years before finally being abandoned. Regazzoni remained with Tecno throughout his three years in Formula Two, although he drove most of the 1969 season for the [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] Formula Two team.<ref name="JPM75">Gill (1976) pp.300–301</ref> In 1970, they took the [[European Formula Two Championship]] together.

====Sports car racing====
[[File:Regazzoni, Clay im Ferrari 312 P am 29.05.1971.jpg|thumb|right|Regazzoni in a [[Ferrari 312PB]] at the 1971 Nürburgring 1000km]]
As well as single seater racing, Regazzoni participated in [[sports car racing]], including the [[1970 24 Hours of Le Mans]] where he and [[Arturo Merzario]] raced a [[Ferrari]] [[Ferrari 512|512S]]. However, the pair retired after completing only 38 laps. This would prove to be Regazzoni's only appearance at the [[24 Hours of Le Mans]], although he tested for the 1972 event.

For the following two years, Regazzoni was a permanent fixture in Ferrari's sports car racing squad. With the new [[Ferrari 312B|312B]]-based [[Ferrari 312PB|312P]] cars underneath him, Regazzoni regularly ran at or near the front of the field.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}} Regularly partnered with [[Jacky Ickx]], the pairing took second place in the BOAC 1000&nbsp;km at [[Brands Hatch]] in 1971, and won the first heat during the Imola 500&nbsp;km. Regazzoni also won the [[Kyalami]] 9&nbsp;Hours race, this time in partnership with [[Brian Redman]]. Further successes followed in 1972, with second places at the [[1000 km Buenos Aires]], partnered again by Redman, and the prestigious Spa 1000&nbsp;km race. The high point of the season came when the Regazzoni/Ickx partnership won the Monza 1000&nbsp;km race.<ref>{{Cite journal  | last = Cruickshank  | first = Gordon  | title = Ferrari 312PB  | journal = Motorsport  | volume = LXXXII | pages = 43–50  |date=November 2006 }}</ref>

With his departure from Ferrari in 1973, Regazzoni's sports car results dried up. His uncompetitive [[Alfa Romeo Tipo 33#Alfa Romeo 33TT12|Alfa Romeo 33 TT]] was thoroughly outclassed by the Ferrari and Matra opposition.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}} At the end of 1973 Ferrari withdrew from sports car racing, and Regazzoni's move to rejoin the Ferrari Formula One team in 1974 effectively ended his sports car career, as he could not then race for other manufacturers.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}}

===Formula One===
====1970–72: Ferrari====
{{Main|Scuderia Ferrari}}
During the early races of the [[1970 Formula One season]] Ferrari only entered one car, for Belgian [[Jacky Ickx]], but at the fourth round in [[1970 Belgian Grand Prix|Belgium]], the team decided to run a second car to try out some younger drivers. Italian [[Ignazio Giunti]] was given the second seat in Belgium, where he finished fourth, while Regazzoni took his place at the following round in [[1970 Dutch Grand Prix|the Netherlands]], also finishing fourth. Giunti was back in the seat for the following Grand Prix in [[1970 French Grand Prix|France]], but finished fourteenth, three laps behind the winner and eventual 1970 World Champion [[Jochen Rindt]].

Regazzoni was back in the Ferrari for the [[1970 British Grand Prix|British Grand Prix]], where he finished fourth again, but this time Regazzoni kept the race seat. Four podium finishes followed for Regazzoni during the final six rounds of the 1970 season, including a win at [[1970 Italian Grand Prix|Monza]], Ferrari's home race. However, the race was overshadowed by the death of Championship leader Rindt, during qualifying for the race. A first pole position, at the final round in [[1970 Mexican Grand Prix|Mexico]], capped a hugely successful first season in the top formula. Regazzoni finished third in the Drivers' Championship with 33&nbsp;points, 12&nbsp; points behind posthumous World Champion Rindt.

Following the death of Giunti at a sports car event during the winter of 1971, Ferrari opted for Ickx and Regazzoni for the [[1971 Formula One season]].<ref name="GP">Clay Regazzoni [http://www.grandprix.com/gpe/drv-regcla.html www.grandprix.com] Retrieved 1 March 2007.</ref> Prior to the start of the European legs of the Formula One World Championship, Regazzoni won the prestigious [[Race of Champions (Brands Hatch)|Race of Champions]] at [[Brands Hatch]], beating [[Jackie Stewart]] into second place. Despite this early promise, the [[Ferrari 312]]B and B2 proved to be inferior to the Stewart/[[Tyrrell 003]] combination. Regazzoni only managed three podium finishes during the season, as well as a pole position at the [[1971 British Grand Prix|British Grand Prix]]. The Swiss finished seventh in the Drivers' Championship that year, 49&nbsp;points behind World Champion [[Jackie Stewart]].

Further disappointment for Regazzoni followed in [[1972 Formula One season|1972]], with only a single podium finish, in [[1972 German Grand Prix|Germany]], although he scored two points more than the previous season. Regazzoni again finished seventh in the Drivers' Championship, 46&nbsp;points behind World Champion [[Emerson Fittipaldi]].

====1973: BRM====
Regazzoni opted to leave Ferrari in [[1973 Formula One season|1973]], in favour of [[Marlboro (cigarette)|Marlboro]]-sponsored BRM for what was reported as "an astronomical fee".<ref name="JPM75" /> Here he joined young driver [[Niki Lauda]], and the two became firm friends. After a huge crash during the [[1973 South African Grand Prix|South African Grand Prix]], he was pulled from the blazing wreckage by [[Mike Hailwood]], who was later awarded the [[George Medal]] for his heroism in saving Regazzoni's life.<ref name = "obitteleg" /> It proved to be an unsuccessful year for Regazzoni, despite a pole position in the [[1973 Argentine Grand Prix]] season opener. He was reported to have become disillusioned with "uncompetitive machinery" as he scored just two points during the entire season, his worst points haul from a full season in Formula One.<ref name="JPM75" /> He achieved a lowly 17th place in the championship.

====1974–76: Back to Ferrari====
[[File:Regazzoni 1974 Race of Champions.jpg|thumb|Regazzoni at the [[1974 Race of Champions]]]]
Ferrari had a big personnel shake-up at the start of [[1974 Formula One season|1974]], after [[Luca Cordero di Montezemolo]] was hired to run the Italian team. Both Regazzoni and, on Regazzoni's recommendation, Lauda were picked up by Ferrari. Regazzoni was soon back on the podium. Seven podium finishes, including a win in [[1974 German Grand Prix|Germany]], his first since his debut season win at Monza four years earlier, as well as a pole position at [[1974 Belgian Grand Prix|Nivelles]], allowed Regazzoni to outscore the up-and-coming Lauda. Entering the last race of the season, in the [[1974 United States Grand Prix|USA]] Regazzoni was well in contention for the title, and only needed to finish ahead of rival, Emerson Fittipaldi, to take the crown. Regazzoni suffered handling problems during the race due to a defective [[shock absorber]] and could finish only 11th after two pit stops.<ref>1974 United States Grand Prix [http://www.gpracing.net192.com/races/reports/250.cfm www.gpracing.net192.com] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080328153805/http://www.gpracing.net192.com/races/reports/250.cfm |date=28 March 2008 }} Retrieved 1 March 2007</ref> He finished second in the Drivers' Championship, his career-best, just three points behind Fittipaldi.

Ferrari retained Lauda and Regazzoni's services for [[1975 Formula One season|1975]] and the pair took six victories between them: five for Lauda, and one for Regazzoni at the [[1975 Italian Grand Prix]]. Regazzoni also won his home Grand Prix, the non-championship [[1975 Swiss Grand Prix|Swiss Grand Prix]], the only Swiss driver to have done so. Ferrari secured the Constructors' Championship, and Lauda won the first of his three World titles. Regazzoni finished fifth in the Drivers' Championship with 25&nbsp;points.

[[File:Regazzoni, Clay am 31.07.1976 - Ferrari 312T.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Regazzoni driving the [[Ferrari 312T]] at the [[Nürburgring]] in 1976]]
[[1976 Formula One season|1976]] would prove to be the start of Regazzoni's downward slide in Formula One. Despite a promising start of the season, with a dominating win from pole position at the inaugural [[1976 United States Grand Prix West|Long Beach]] Grand Prix, and a further three podium finishes, Ferrari entered a period of internal turmoil following Lauda's accident at the Nürburgring. Following Lauda's loss of the Drivers' Championship at the very last race of the season in Japan, Ferrari elected to replace the Swiss with [[Carlos Reutemann]] despite Lauda's protest. The [[Argentina|Argentine]] never got on with Lauda as well as Regazzoni did.<ref>{{cite book |last=Tremayne |first= David|author-link=David Tremayne |title=The Lost Generation |orig-year= 2006|date= August 2006|publisher= Haynes Publishing|isbn=1-84425-205-1 |chapter=Chapter 19 – A Moment of Desperate Sadness |page=239 }}</ref> When he left Ferrari, Regazzoni was the longest serving Ferrari driver with 73 races with the team. The record would hold for 12 years until [[Michele Alboreto]] broke it at the [[1988 Hungarian Grand Prix]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/ferrari-f1-information-statistics/ | title=Complete Ferrari F1 team info: See all drivers, stats, wins & cars | date=23 June 2012 }}</ref>

====1977: Ensign====
Following his release from Ferrari, Regazzoni opted for a move to the Ensign team. His move to such a small team surprised some, but Regazzoni opted for the small outfit in preference to an offer from [[Bernie Ecclestone]] to drive for [[Brabham]], as he preferred "to race with nice people".<ref>{{cite news| title =Nigel Roebuck on Clay Regazzoni | publisher =Autosport.com| url =http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/56037| date =15 December 2006| access-date =17 January 2007}} Ecclestone had reduced the value of an earlier salary offer after learning that Regazzoni had been dropped by Ferrari.</ref> His season with Ensign, despite managing a points finish on his debut in [[1977 Argentine Grand Prix|Argentina]], was not successful. Regazzoni finished in the points only a further two times, and ended the season with a total of five points. In May Regazzoni participated in the [[1977 Indianapolis 500|Indianapolis 500]] driving a [[McLaren (racing)|McLaren]]-[[Offenhauser]] for [[Theodore Racing]]. He crashed heavily in practice but managed to qualify. He finished in 30th place after a fuel cell gave out during his first pit stop.

====1978: Shadow====
Regazzoni moved to Shadow in [[1978 Formula One season|1978]], as a replacement for [[Alan Jones (Formula 1)|Alan Jones]] who had left to join [[Williams Grand Prix Engineering|Williams]]. Only two points scoring finishes followed for Regazzoni and he finished the season 16th in the Drivers' Championship, 60&nbsp;points behind World Champion [[Mario Andretti]].

====1979: Williams====
[[File:Williams F1 FW07 Crop.jpg|thumb|250px|Regazzoni's [[WilliamsF1|Williams]] [[Williams FW07|FW07]] from {{F1|1979}}]]
[[Frank Williams (Formula One)|Frank Williams]] gave Regazzoni his final drive in a competitive car alongside Alan Jones. The [[Williams FW07]] proved to be very competitive, especially in the final part of the season, with FW07s winning all but two of the final seven races of the [[1979 Formula One season|1979 calendar]]. The first win was for Regazzoni, at [[1979 British Grand Prix|Silverstone]], the first of over 100 victories for the Williams Grand Prix team. In deference to the team's [[Saudi Arabia|Saudi]] sponsors, he celebrated on the podium with [[Lilt]].<ref name = "obitteleg">{{cite news| title =Obituary – Clay Regazzoni| publisher =Telegraph.co.uk| url =https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/1537186/Clay-Regazzoni.html| date =18 December 2006| access-date =17 January 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/56037 |title=Nigel Roebuck on Clay Regazzoni |publisher=Autosport |date=15 December 2006 |access-date=4 November 2012}}</ref> However, despite his achievement, once again he was replaced by [[Carlos Reutemann]] at the end of the season. At the [[1979 Italian Grand Prix|Italian Grand Prix]], motorsport journalist [[Nigel Roebuck]] asked Regazzoni why he continued to drive at the age of 40, with no prospect of a competitive seat. Regazzoni replied, "I love [Formula One], and most of all I love to drive racing cars. So why should I stop when I feel this way?".<ref name="GPgreats" /> At the end of the year he was invited to compete in the [[IROC VII|1980 International Race of Champions]], the last active Formula One driver, alongside [[Mario Andretti]], to do so.<ref>[[Martin Brundle]] competed in 1990, but did not compete in Formula One that year.</ref>

====1980: Back with Ensign====
[[File:Ensign N180 front-right 2010 Pavilion Pit Stop.jpg|thumb|left|Regazzoni was driving the [[Ensign N180]] chassis when he crashed at the [[1980 United States Grand Prix West]].]]

Lacking an offer for a competitive drive in [[1980 Formula One season|1980]], Regazzoni re-joined Ensign. His season came to an abrupt end only four races into the year. He crashed during the [[1980 United States Grand Prix West]], held at [[Long Beach, California|Long Beach]], when the brake pedal of his Ensign failed at the end of a long, high-speed straight travelling at approximately 280&nbsp;km/h. [[Ricardo Zunino]]'s retired Brabham was parked on the escape road. Regazzoni later recalled, "I hit Zunino's car, then bounced into the barrier. For about 10 minutes I lost consciousness. Then I remember terrible pain in my hips..."<ref name="GPgreats">Roebuck, Nigel ''Grand Prix Greats'' (1986) p.140. Book Club Associates {{ISBN|0-85059-792-7}}</ref> The crash left Regazzoni paralyzed from the waist down, ending his competitive career. On recovery, Regazzoni sued the race organisers, claiming their safety procedures were sub-standard.  However, the race organisers demonstrated that the procedures were adequate and won the case.<ref name="GP" />

===After Formula One===
After this accident, Regazzoni became known for his activities in helping disabled people get equal opportunities in life and society. Despite his disability, he was determined to live as full a life as possible.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}} He won back his racing licence and became one of the first disabled drivers to participate in high-level motorsports. Although his injuries made a Formula One return impossible, he raced with some success in [[rally raid]]s (e.g. the [[Dakar Rally]]) and sportscars (e.g. the [[12 Hours of Sebring]]). These achievements paved the way for the wider acceptance of disabled persons in motoring and motorsports. His last competitive race was in 1990, although he was occasionally offered test drives in racing cars during the 1990s. In 1994, he returned to the Long Beach Grand Prix (at that point an IndyCar race) to compete as a Pro in the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race.

[[File:clay regazzoni.jpg|thumb|left|Regazzoni after his accident.]]
An account of his life can be found in his autobiography ''È questione di cuore'' ("It's a Matter of Heart") published in the mid-1980s. His post-Formula One career occasionally saw him as a commentator for Swiss and Italian television. A second book about his experience at the Dakar Rally, ''E la corsa continua'' ("And the race goes on") was published in 1988. He once commented to [[Niki Lauda]], his ten years younger teammate, that "if you drive as tensed up as you behave yourself towards women, you will never become great."<ref name="mein letzter">{{cite news|title=Mein letzter Besuch bei einem Freund|url=http://www.blick.ch/sport/formel1/regazzoni/artikel51760|publisher=Blick online|date=17 December 2006|access-date=15 January 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110928000600/http://www.blick.ch/sport/formel1/regazzoni/artikel51760|archive-date=28 September 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref>
