On track he was always the toughest of tough competitors, tough sometimes to the point at which I’d wonder how could such a nice bloke out of a car grow such horns and a tail inside one,
Stirling Moss on Jack Brabham
Sir Jack Brabham's three world championships ( 1959, 1960, 1966) were the product of both his engineering expertise and driving skill. His first two titles, in rear-engined Coopers he helped develop, confirmed the obsolescence of front-engined Formula One cars. His third title, in a Brabham, made him the only driver to become champion in a car of his own make. His last win came at the 1970 South African Grand Prix, after which, aged 44 and with 126 races behind him, the triple champion retired to Australia. His now-defunct team was sold to future Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone while Ron Dennis, Brabham’s erstwhile chief mechanic, went on to transform McLaren.
At 18 he joined the Royal Australian Air Force in Adelaide, where he wanted to learn to fly but was instead trained to fill a wartime shortage of flight mechanics. Upon his discharge, in 1946, an uncle in the construction business built him a workshop in Sydney, where Jack opened his own engineering establishment. 
Tumblr media
Jack's introduction to motorsport came through a friend who raced midgets on dirt track ovals in 1951. Jack helped him build a new car and when his friend decided to stop driving Jack took over and became a regular winner. In self-prepared midgets he won four successive Australian championships and was the 1953 hillclimb champion in a British-built Cooper-Bristol. Two years later his growing ambition to expand his motorsport horizons brought Jack to England. A meeting with John and Charles Cooper, constructors of his successful Australian car, led to a friendship and partnership that would propel the tiny Cooper Car Company and 'Black Jack' Brabham into the forefront of Formula One history.
With Brabham providing the inspiration (he helped persuade the Coopers to take the rear-engine route into Formula One racing) and the perspiration (he built up his first chassis in Cooper's workshop) the tiny British cars with the engines in the back sped to the front in an era previously dominated by big, front-engined Italian and German roadsters.
Tumblr media
In the Brabham-led team's first full championship season of 1958 the debut win for a Cooper came courtesy of Stirling Moss, who drove Rob Walker's private entry to victory in Argentina.
In 1959 Moss won twice, but Brabham's victories in Monaco and Britain together with his consistently high placings resulted in the Australian winning a drivers’ title that some thought owed more to stealth than skill, an opinion at least partly based on Brabham's low-key presence.
As much an engineer as a racing driver, with wartime experience working as ground crew in the Royal Australian Air Force, Brabham was never one to hog the limelight or seek attention. Always a man of few words - his nickname 'Black Jack' referred to both his dark hair and his propensity for maintaining a shadowy silence - he avoided small talk and was undemonstrative in the extreme.
Tumblr media
Brabham may not have been a big talker or particularly flamboyant but he was as shrewd as they come. Behind the wheel he was anything but shy and retiring. He put his head down and drove exceedingly forcefully, opposite-locking his car dirt-track style, and was not averse to deliberately showering gravel in the face of a too closely following pursuer. His aversion for the limelight became more of a problem in 1960, when he completely dominated the nine-race series, winning consecutively in Holland, Belgium, France, Britain and Portugal, en route to his second successive championship.
Following an unproductive 1961 season, when the Ferraris were all powerful, Brabham left Cooper to form Motor Racing Developments, in partnership with the talented Australian designer Ron Tauranac. The MRD Brabhams were quickly successful in several categories of racing, particularly Formula Two where for several years they dominated, affording the opportunity for many drivers to advance their careers. The Brabham Formula One car, which first appeared late in 1962, became steadily more competitive as the team leader personally perfected the chassis set-up and fine-tuned the Climax engines. In 1964 Brabham had the satisfaction of seeing his team mate Dan Gurney win in France and Mexico.
Tumblr media
For 1966, when the new 3-litre formula came into effect, Brabham persuaded an Australian company Repco (a manufacturer of automotive components) to produce a Formula One engine from a venerable Oldsmobile V8 design. Equally ancient was Brabham himself, or so it seemed to the media and his much younger rivals who used to kid him about his age. Prior to the 1966 Dutch Grand Prix, his first race after his 40th birthday, 'Geriatric Jack' Brabham hobbled onto the starting grid at Zandvoort, wearing a long false beard and leaning on a cane. Sportingly, several of his laughing opponents helped him into the cockpit of his Brabham-Repco, which happened to be on pole position.
Tossing aside his beard and cane Brabham proceeded to win that race, a feat he also accomplished in France, in Britain and in Germany - on the notoriously difficult and dangerous Nurburgring - a victory he felt was the most satisfying of his career. Thus in 1966 Brabham became the first (and still only) driver, to win the championship in a car of his own make. 
Tumblr media
Jack Brabham, whose final victory came in the 1970 South African Grand Prix when he was 44, chose that season to retire as a driver. The Brabham team was sold to Bernie Ecclestone and Jack returned home to Australia, where he busied himself running a farm, a car dealership and an aviation company, and helped his sons with their racing careers. His contribution to British motorsport was officially recognised in 1985 and he became Sir Jack Brabham. He passed away peacefully at his home in May 2014, aged 88.

Q: Sebastian, where does your passion for motor sports come from? A: It’s simple! I come from a family passionate about motorsport who gradually transmitted the virus to me. As my father was driving in hillclimbs, we were already immersed in competition. As a child I remember I was watching the Formula 1 Grand Prix with him. Then, feeling that I was interested, my father gave me a kart which I could do tricks with in the garden. I must have been 3 or 4 and a half years old when I started. You see, this goes a long way back! Q: What are your best memories from karting? A: Like many drivers, I have very good memories of my years in karting. There have been important victories like my first title in Bambini class B when I was 10 years old. 2001 was a significant year in  ICA-Junior with victories in the European Championship, the German Championship and Monaco Kart Cup driving a Tony Kart / Vortex. I  remember in particular Michael Schumacher personally handing me the winner’s trophy after a race at Kerpen. I will never forget this important moment … Q: In your opinion, what is the role of karting in the development of a driver? A: These are the first experiments in motorsport. We have many things to learn, starting with the discipline to succeed. One learns to assimilate the circuits and to understand the operation of the machine. Gradually his driving personality is forged. This is obvious, but we must remember that karting is the best school to prepare for car racing. To succeed, a young driver must believe in himself and follow his own path to achieve his objectives, without forgetting the pleasure of driving. Q: What do you think of the current karting competition? A: Karting has become more expensive and that’s a shame, but everything has become more expensive in life in general. I think that karting must strive to become affordable without losing sight of its origins. I know efforts are being made to provide greater equity and to produce more exciting races. This is going in the right direction. Q: Have you stayed close to karting? A: Even when you drive in the highest categories, there is always pleasure in taking the wheel of a kart. As soon as I am able, I return to karting with my friends. Furthermore, I willingly agreed to become the sponsor of the DKM (German Karting Championship) because I think firstly it is a good thing to support young drivers and secondly I had to give back to karting part of what it has given me. 📷 ksp photo agency

Motorcycle Tennis anyone? That would be ridiculous... but MotoPolo, now this is the sport of legends! What started as a late night conversation in The Mile after party - with the official Malle MotoPolo rules (yes we made and printed a rule book) being based on a mixture of Kazakhstani Goat Polo and Ice Hockey - The 'Malle Motopolo Tournament' is now in it’s 5th year and it gets wilder and more fun every year! This year we have confirmed MotoPolo teams coming in from our friends at Herald Motorcycles, Royal Enfield, Super 73, Malle, The Channel9 Commentary Crew…and we’ve just received word that the El Solitario crew are currently en route from Spain, with trucks packed full of CAKE motorcycles and howling Wolves…hell bent on claiming the 2022 MotoPolo Trophy! Is MotoPolo a national sport in Spain? We really hope not, because if any of these teams have a training regime like the Malle MotoPolo team…they won’t have touched a MotoPolo ball since they left the pitch last year! 😂 Game On! @elsolitariomc @ridecake @super73 @super73eu @royalenfieldeurope @royalenfield @heraldmotorco @channel9crew @mallelondon The 21st - 24th of July, 2022 - Grimsthorpe Castle Festival details available now at www.MalleLondon.com/The-Mile #TheMalleMile #TheMalleMile2022 #Summer #Festival #TheMile #MotorcycleRace #Race #Scrambler #ClassicMotorcycle #CustomBike #CafeRacer #OffRoadRace #Motorcycle #SprintRace #HillClimb #TheDash #TheMalle100 #TheArtofMachine #TheArtofSprint #GrimsthorpeCastle (at Grimsthorpe Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgOpo4Qqkbp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

and now, the fruits of the past (embarrassing number) days’ labors: an updated shipwright & fairbairn playlist, where the order is intentional (but it’s just as good shuffled.) blathering below the cut
this playlist is arranged into sort-of sections based on where i think each song falls in the shipwright and fairbairn arc
the first song is the chant where i took the series/playlist title from, as well as where i poached the title of the last fic in the series from
the first section’s songs are ones i associate with linda growing up, interspersed (somewhat jarringly) with songs i associate with herc’s time at air england and whatever happened between him and douglas there pre-canon. i find it super interesting how in my interpretation, herc’s downfall at air england has to temporally coincide with linda’s growth. i tried to communicate the divergence of their respective life paths at this point by varying the genre, mood, and even time period of the songs.
fever dream coincides with hillclimb.
the playlist features the apo hiking society herc trifecta in order for the first time, though it’s scattered throughout the playlist.
yes i put unwritten on there. and i mean it seriously. it came out the year i use for linda’s hiring at air cal (2004)
valentine, texas marks the beginning of their early friendship (ch. 1 of shipwright & fairbairn)
wandering sounds like a takeoff and climb to cruising altitude. i don’t make the rules
best friend is where their relationship truly blossoms, as indicated by the fact that barbiere is placed right afterward.
ok so i start interspersing bits from rigoletto and. exhales ok. this deserves its own post but this part of the playlist kind of delves into the aspect of their relationship that… is a little bit dark. they’re definitely kind of codependent and… yeah this deserves its own post but just accept that part for now pls
i’ve never been in love before coincides with herc in newcastle, and the subsequent songs are that interlude
i wish you love is, for the purposes of this playlist, about linda making the decision to leave, not for any interpersonal reason, but just because it’s her time to go (so like. ch. 8 of s&f)
i have always envisioned fan videos to both photograph and night light. don’t ask me about them or i’ll go on for years
the beginning and something for 2 mark the end of the main narrative. something for 2 melds directly into chaeri which starts the last section, which…
…covers the shipwright & fairbairn zurich au (let me let go). yeah it’s pain lol
we end with unspoken words, and i mean for this playlist to be looped back, but if you don’t have time, just listen to the end of the song, then make sure you hear the ending, then loop it all the way back to the beginning of the playlist. et voila, a circular story
yeah uhhh that’s it. i think. haha

A day at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, and we enter into a busy and noisy paddock just in time to see an array of classic Ferraris returning from a run up the world-famous Goodwood Hill Climb a challenging run up a narrow walk-lined country lane which considering the rarity and value of some of these cars seems quite insane. But I guess if you have the money and aren't hurting anyone then who and I to criticize and I guess they do look and sound pretty awesome.
