Peter Gethin
Frank Gethin, often known as "Gethin", was a versatile driver who competed in Formula 1 during the early 1970s. While he started 30 Grand Prix, his career highlight came at the non-championship 1971 Race of Champions, which he won. Gethin was known for his robust driving style and adaptability across different racing disciplines, having found success in sports cars and F5000 before and after his brief F1 stint. Though he never stood on an F1 podium, his reputation was built on his gritty determination and ability to extract performance from his machinery.
