Andrea de Cesaris

Andrea de Cesaris was a flamboyant, often spectacular, Italian driver whose career spanned an impressive 14 seasons. Known for his aggressive driving style, he earned the nickname "de Crasheris" early on due to frequent incidents, yet he matured into a respected, reliable competitor. Despite starting 214 races and achieving 5 podium finishes, he holds the unenviable record for the most Grand Prix starts without a win. He drove for numerous teams, including Alfa Romeo, McLaren, Jordan, and Tyrrell, often demonstrating flashes of incredible speed.
