Innes Ireland
Encyclopedia
Robert McGregor Innes Ireland (12 June 1930 – 22 October 1993), was a British
military officer, engineer
, and motor racing driver. He was a larger-than-life character who, according to a rival team boss, "lived without sense, without an analyst and provoked astonishment and affection from everyone."
Ireland was born on 12 June 1930 in Mytholmroyd
, Yorkshire
, England
, the son of a Scottish veterinary surgeon
. His family returned to Kirkcudbright
, Dumfries and Galloway
, in Scotland
during his youth, and he trained as an engineer with Rolls-Royce
, first in Glasgow
and later in London
. Commissioned as a lieutenant
in the King's Own Scottish Borderers
, he served with the Parachute Regiment in the Suez Canal
Zone during 1953 and 1954.
Ireland's first serious year of auto racing was 1957, by which time he was running a small engineering firm in Surrey
. Success in sports car
racing saw him make his Formula One
debut for Team Lotus
in 1959. In 1960 he won three non-championship Formula One races and finished fourth in the World Drivers Championship. Badly injured in the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix
, Ireland recovered to win the Solitude
and Austrian Grand Prix
races, then finished the season with a victory in the United States Grand Prix
at Watkins Glen
.
Ireland upset Lotus Cars
boss Colin Chapman
and the team sponsors by giving up his car to Stirling Moss
of the rival Rob Walker team
at the 1961 Italian Grand Prix
. This led to him being arbitrarily sacked at the end of the '61 season. Despite occasional successes, Ireland never again had a car to match his talent, and his last serious race was the Daytona 500
in 1967.
A talented writer, Ireland produced a classic autobiography
, All Arms and Elbows (ISBN 0-85184-050-7), and worked as a journalist
