Born on 18 January of the year one thousand nine hundred and forty in the City of Mexico, and on 11 July 1971 in the NorisRing of Germany leaves everything, but without leaving the whole. Because it has been returned to look always and forever, driving late at night or with rain when was unstoppable unstoppable and always rubbing the fable. Played careers from child to show and prove that brought in the veins high-octane gasoline. Very early, let us see in mexican tracks that was made to the major leagues. Product for export. The fortune placed him on the road where face, without hesitation, to the biggest rivals of his time. In the Formula 1, when they had to sacrifice themselves seriously to arrive and then remain embroidered a task of giant in proportion of which was possible with its means: won two tests that the Mexican imaginary always has with him. There is no other national corridor with such feats, in the 54 GP who competed. Signed wonderful days in the most famous endurance circuits in cars sport or prototypes - so you want to call and truth, there is nothing to discuss: was the best in the world. Wrote a story sensational, brief and solid in that Formula 1 of his time. Printed left its mark on Kyalami - South Africa - with a Cooper-Maserati, on rubbers of Firestone. And then it did between Spa and Francorchamps in 1970, on its BRM, footwear by Dunlop.

There was no place in which did not leave his memory extraordinary and, moreover, the elegant gesture of a knight. Serene and always with the comment intelligently, serious and respectful. From a guy like him. Great. It gave the luxury of leaving his trademark on board of a thousand and one cars: Lotus, BRM, Ferrari, Cooper and in particular those of Porsche; since then that also in the Ferrari with capacete and that Ford GT, with which also triumphed. Until the forgotten, as well as strangers, racing cars Italians, OCSS. Among the thousand data in that Mr pilotazo. Ensure that was a corridor without equal, is one of the pious lies of sport Mexican. What is valuable to him - in contrast - was the copy of your work. The way in which he invested all the efforts in a thankless profession and more, for the times in which he played rifársela. A tenacity to all test. Very respected by his colleagues, even by the great champions of his time. But also by the public around the world. Without glorify him as a pilot of F1 incomparable, yes that has been the most. No more and no less. And its universal prestige what gave proud to their homeland.
