Racing History
The majority of Formula 1 drivers learned their craft in Formula Fords. These cars were forgiving to drive and very equal in specification and handling ability. Generally, the best drivers won. Formula Ford winners progressed through Formula B (or F3000) class to F2 or Formula Atlantic before reaching F1. Jacques Villeneuve won the Formula 2 Championship in 1980 in a similar car, SN 80A/6. This car is SN 80A/20.
