Jackie Oliver
Encyclopedia
Keith Jack Oliver, better known as Jackie Oliver, (born 14 August 1942 in Chadwell Heath
, Essex
) is a British
former Formula One
driver and team-owner from England
. He is perhaps better known now as the founder of the Arrows
team rather than as a racing driver, although during his driving career he won both the 24 Hours of Le Mans
race and the Can-Am championship.
in British club saloon racing. He then upgraded to a Lotus Elan
and entered GT racing, scoring some excellent results, and then having a difficult time in Formula Three
, where his natural speed was blighted by mechanical failures.
Nevertheless, for 1967 he was drafted into the Team Lotus
Formula Two
team, which also saw him making his Grand Prix debut in the F2 class at the German Grand Prix
, where he came 5th overall and won the F2 class. In 1968 he was called up by Colin Chapman
to take over the works F1 seat for Team Lotus
after the death of Jim Clark
. His contract did not include an F2 drive. In discussions with Tony Rudlin, a failed racing driver, at that time responsible for running the Herts and Essex Aero Club for ex-world motor cycling champion, Roger Frogley
, a deal was struck to run in the club's colours. Lotus supplied and ran the car, supplied the mechanics and generally acted as competition managers while Rudlin was team manager. The F2 team was reasonably successful although not running full Team Lotus spec. At the end of the year the team was invited to compete in the four races making up the Argentine Temporada. The Herts and Essex Team finished third overall in the series. The F1 season would turn out to be difficult, with Oliver struggling for finishes. He led the British Grand Prix
until an engine failure, and would only finish twice, his best result being 3rd place at the season-closing Mexican Grand Prix
.
With Jochen Rindt
signing for Lotus for 1969, Oliver was out, switching to BRM. He was to suffer disappointing two years at the Bourne team, which would effectively kill off his Grand Prix career. In two years he would muster just four finishes, with his only points scores being 6th place in the 1969 Mexican Grand Prix
, and 5th in the 1970 Austrian Grand Prix
. The vast majority of his other races saw the BRM
break down.
His best results in these seasons would come from endurance racing, in John Wyer
's Gulf Ford GT40
, winning the 12 Hours of Sebring
and 24 Hours of Le Mans
events with Jacky Ickx
in 1969, and the 24 Hours of Daytona
and the 1000 km of Monza
in 1970 with Pedro Rodríguez
.
In 1969, he would debut in CanAm
, initially for Autocoast in the TI-22, and then for Don Nichols' Shadow
team. 1971 saw him out of a full-time Formula One
drive, though he had three drives in a third McLaren. 1972 saw him concentrate mainly on CanAm with Shadow, though he would take a one-off drive for BRM at the British Grand Prix, where he retired.
For 1973, Shadow entered F1, and Oliver was nominated as team leader. The DN-1 proved a difficult chassis, and once again his season was blighted by mechanical errors. However, in the Canadian Grand Prix
he ran well, and many believe he actually won the race, but the lap charts were thrown into confusion by a rain shower meaning multiple pit-stops, and a staggeringly inept deployment of a pace car by the organisers. As it was, Oliver was classified 3rd, his only points finish of the year.
1974 saw Oliver concentrate on CanAm, taking the series title for Shadow. He was becoming more involved in the management side of Shadow, but would compete in Formula 5000
for the team for three seasons, and even briefly returned to F1, finishing 5th in the 1977 Race of Champions
, and taking 9th in the Swedish Grand Prix
.
, designers Tony Southgate
and Alan Rees
, and engineer Dave Wass to form the Arrows
Grand Prix team, also taking the young Riccardo Patrese
to the new team.
Arrows would become famous for having the longest losing streak in Formula One
history, 382 races with no wins. However, the team would always have well-presented cars which would usually be competitive, if not front-runners, and would often give breaks to talented drivers - besides Patrese, Thierry Boutsen
, Gerhard Berger
, Marc Surer
and Martin Donnelly would all drive for the team early in their career.
Oliver sold much of his stake to the Japan
ese Footwork Corporation in 1990, remaining as director, but the team failed to move forward and the company pulled out at the end of 1993 due to financial trouble. Oliver had his team back, but money was tight, and in 1996 he again sold most of his shares to Tom Walkinshaw
's TWR
group. Oliver remained on the board until 1999, when he sold his remaining shares for a sizeable amount of money.
