Roy Salvadori
Roy Francesco Salvadori (born 12 May 1922 in Dovercourt, died 3 June 2012 in Monaco) was a British racing driver. A talented driver in sportscars, club racing and Formula 2, this was inhibited in the World Championship by his allegiances, first to Bentley, then to his friend David Hampshire. Driving for both teams, he never made an impact, despite occasional flashes of pace. Outside of this, he was well respected, winning many non-championship races as well as the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans with Henry Taylor. Salvadori scored his first Formula One points, podium and fastest lap at the 1958 United States Grand Prix, where he finished in third place.
