#HappyBirthday Érik Comas, 63. He started 59 #F1 GPs for Ligier & Larrousse, best result 5th (Magny-Cours, ’92, Ligier), but he was more successful in #SuperGT Japan (’98 & ’99 champion in a Nissan Skyline GT-R). Here he is with his own Lancia Stratos.

But it’s as owner & boss of his eponymous #F1 team that Guy Ligier will always be remembered. Équipe Ligier won 9 F1 GPs between ’76 & ’96, & some of their cars were among the most beautiful of that era, such as the Ligier JS11 here being raced at Dijon in ’79 by Jacky Ickx. (2/2)

Remembering #F1 car designer Gérard Ducarouge, who died #OnThisDay 10 years ago, aged 73. In a long career he worked for Matra, Ligier, Alfa Romeo, Lotus & Larrousse, but IMHO nothing he did would ever eclipse his sublime Ligier JS11 (pic: Jacky Ickx, Dijon, ’79).

#OnThisDay in ’79, at Jarama, Patrick Depailler won the #SpanishGP for Ligier, dicing with team-mate Laffite until Laffite missed a gear & buzzed his Cossie (you could do that with old-style Hewland H-gate ’boxes). Pic: what a beautiful car Depailler’s winning Ligier JS11 was.👌

Remembering #F1 & sports car driver Jo Schlesser, born #OnThisDay in ’28. As a mark of respect to his departed friend, Guy Ligier gave his F1 cars JS-prefixes, such as the stunning ’79 Ligier JS11, driven here by Jacky Ickx, who’d won the GP in which Schlesser had lost his life.

Olivier Panis winning the 1996 Monaco Grand Prix in a foul little Ligier
Which #F1 GP was the first to take place after your birth? I was born on 25 December ’62, so my answer is the ’62 #SouthAfricanGP, which took place #OnThisDay 62 years ago. Pic: Jim Clark (Lotus 25; car #1) & Graham Hill (BRM P57; #3) at the start. Clark led then DNF’d. Hill won.
