JOHN SURTEES' BIOGRAPHY
The Ultimate Perfectionist
John Surtees - one of the most gifted and versatile racers of all time - holds the outstanding distinction of being the only man to have won World Championships on two and four wheels.
 An out-and-out professional, with a strong independent streak, he took on all-comers to win seven World Championships on motorcycles, one Formula One world drivers' title and the North American Can-Am Championship for sports cars.
During the 1970s he also designed, built and raced, with typical dedication and determination, his own Team Surtees F1, F2 and F5000 cars.
The ultimate perfectionist, he brought to motor racing an abundance of courage, determination, enthusiasm and engineering skills which helped turn many an also-ran into a front runner, or winner.
