Adrian Campos
Surprised this hasn't been mentioned on here yet, but yesterday came the shock news that ex-F1 driver and successful team owner Adrian Campos died at the relatively young age of 60
Had a brief career in F1 with Minardi 1987-88, without any results, indeed he only had two finishes from his 18 race career. After that had a brief career in the Spanish Touring Car Championship, before switching to running his own team first in the Open by Nissan series, where he ran a certain Mr F. Alonso. He then made the move up to GP2 in 2005, before selling to Barwa Addax at the end of 2008. The team returned in 2014 when Barwa Addax pulled out and has continued to be successful in the team. Also ran cars in the WTCC. The team entered into the 2010 F1 championship, before selling to Hispana. Campos also was planning a possible F1 team with Panthera team Asia in the last couple of years His sudden death is a massive shock, especially to someone who always looked well. A great team owner who helped a lot of young drivers on their way to F1. May he RIP |
