Kimi Raikkonen and John Surtees - Ferrari F1 champions at Festival of Speed together!

Kimi Raikkonen and John Surtees Ferrari Team at the Hillclimb | Festival of Speed 2014

A never-before-seen spectacle took place at the Festival of Speed on Sunday. Two world championship winning Ferrari drivers ascended the hill in formation in the cars they won their respective titles in -- John Surtees in his 1964 Ferrari 158 and Kimi Räikkönen in his 2007 Ferrari F2007. It marks 50 years since Surtees claimed his title, which historically made him a world championship in two wheels and four -- an achievement that remains unique today.

Surtees' first race was in the sidecar of his father's Vincent, but they were disqualified when officials found out that John was just 14 years old. Like Kimi, John won his championship in his first season with Ferrari.

The spectacle was orchestrated by Shell, the company that supplied fuel and lubricants to both championship-winning cars. Shell was one of Ferrari's first ever technical partners, way back in 1930.

Like daddy with his son in morning walk.

Unforgettable John Surtees. His legacy will be eternal. The only person to have won World Championships on both two and four wheels. Best regards from Venezuela.

They didn't want to bring the 2014 f1 car. Instead they brought the leaf blower sitting on the grass behind Kimi at 2:50. I say that's the perfect replacement. Sounds and looks just like the car!!

1:00 miss that sound when the cars pulled up on to the grid. Kimi loved this I am sure. The way an F1 car should handle in my view.

[FaXxZ]

what a beauty ... 2007 Ferrari is such a beauty <3

[Mornys]

That Surtees's car looks unbeliavably small and vulnerable compared to today's cars. May have been amazing fun to drive, but looks very dangerous.

Emotional event. Must've been really nice for John and Kimi too.

Why didn’t they interview John Surtees, he is interesting, he achieved way more than the Finn. And his relationship with Enzo....

[Chalky.]

Would have been better if they swapped cars.

[filipposstavro]

I vowed to myself that I will visit the festival of speed once before I die.

[santoyo]

He is smilling D:< he can't be Kimi

I met John Surtees at FOS one year, basically I was in his way when he needed to get in a car to drive it up the hill. He was an absolute gentleman, took time to chat to me as he got ready, had waited for me to finish a picture I was taking of the car, I had no idea he was behind me until he asked very politely’ excuse me young sir, I need to get in that’. Made my weekend.

I loved how Kimi kept blipping the throttle and breaking the tires loose!

[josevilar]

Lástima que Alonso no tenga la suerte de John Surtees hace 50 años o el propio Raikonen bajo la insignia de Ferrari en 2007.
de Ferrari.

[tildaa]

rest in peace. John and his son Henry, I’m suprised John was never knighted!

[marceloxy.z]
