Victory proved elusive with second at Albi his best result and he finished runner-up in the points behind Ronnie Peterson.<\/p>\n\n                            <div class=\"expanding-content__buttons\">\n                                            <a href=\"#\" class=\"button button--outline button--chevron-down expanding-content__more\" data-behaviour=\"toggle\">Read full bio<\/a>\n                        <a href=\"#\" class=\"button button--outline button--chevron-up expanding-content__less\" data-behaviour=\"toggle\">Read Less<\/a>\n                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/section>\n\n                                \n   <\/div>\n\n<section class=\"c-content-article content-article content-section\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"content-article__grid\">\n            <div class=\"content-article__article\">\n                <h2 class=\"title sanomat\">From the archive<\/h2>\n                                                                            \t\t\n\t\n\n<article class=\"article-item \">\n\n\t\n\t\t<a class=\"article-item__link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/archive\/article\/may-1997\/8\/legends-18\/\">\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__image article-item__image--cropped article-item__image--featured\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__issue\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<picture>\n            <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Carlos-Reutemann-in-his-Williams-ahead-of-the-1980-South-African-Grand-Prix-450x253.jpg.webp 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" height=\"253\" width=\"450\" alt=\"How Reutemann&#8217;s 1981 F1 season unravelled: Nigel Roebuck&#8217;s Legends\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Carlos-Reutemann-in-his-Williams-ahead-of-the-1980-South-African-Grand-Prix-450x253.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Carlos-Reutemann-in-his-Williams-ahead-of-the-1980-South-African-Grand-Prix-450x253.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>\n        <\/picture>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__row proxima\" data-cf-ignore>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__tag tag tag--group\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Archive<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"article-item__title article-item__title--cropped sanomat\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHow Reutemann&#8217;s 1981 F1 season unravelled: Nigel Roebuck&#8217;s Legends\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__excerpt\" data-cf-ignore>\n\t\t\t\t<p>In a book shop the other day, I noticed by chance a volume on the life and, for want of a better word, works of Mark Thatcher (no, please, stay&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__meta proxima\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"article-item__date\">May 1997\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIssue<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__author\">By\n\t\t\t\t\t\tNigel Roebuck<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\n<\/article>                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"content-article__content user-content\">\n                <h4><strong>Formula 1 with Brabham<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Reutemann made a sensational Grand Prix debut in front of his adoring Buenos Aires public in 1972 \u2013 qualifying his works Brabham BT34-Ford on pole position for his first race (one of only four men to do so). He followed that up with victory in the non-championship Brazilian GP at Interlagos but his season was temporarily halted by a broken left ankle sustained during practice for Thruxton\u2019s F2 race at Easter.<\/p>\n<p>Twice third during the 1973 Formula 1 season, he also finished second for Ferrari\u2019s sports car team at Vallelunga and Monza. That year also included his only Le Mans 24 Hours start when Reutemann and Tim Schenken retired a Ferrari 312PB.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Breakthrough victories<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The 1974 season began with heartbreak but proved to be his breakthrough F1 campaign. He was just two laps from victory at an emotionally charged Buenos Aires when he ran out of fuel in the Argentine GP. However, he took an early lead at Kyalami and controlled the race thereafter to score a maiden GP victory by 34 seconds. Another two wins followed but inconsistency restricted his championship challenge and Reutemann was sixth in the final points.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>In search of the title with Ferrari and Lotus<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Third in 1975 with a dominant win on the old N\u00fcrburgring the highlight, he was increasingly frustrated while developing Brabham\u2019s unreliable new Alfa Romeo engines in 1976 (he only scored points when fourth in Spain). So Reutemann signed to replace the injured Niki Lauda at Ferrari mid-way through the season. However, the Austrian\u2019s remarkably quick recovery meant Reutemann only raced a third car at the Italian GP.<\/p>\n<p>He remained with the Italian team for a full season in 1977 and third in Argentina and victory in Brazil (the first for Michelin tyres) gave Reutemann an early championship lead. However, Lauda gradually asserted himself and overshadowed his team-mate as he won his second world title. With Lauda leaving to join Brabham, Reutemann was undisputed Ferrari team leader in 1978 and he won four times but the championship was dominated by Lotus with Reutemann finishing third overall.<\/p>\n<p>Eager for championship success of his own, he switched to Lotus for 1979. Second in the Argentine GP, it was an unhappy and increasingly uncompetitive year made all the more painful by his Ferrari replacement Jody Scheckter winning the world championship for the Scuderia.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>So close with Williams<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>On the move again after a single season, Reutemann joined Williams whose new FW07 ground effect car had ended 1979 as the class of the field. Victory in the 1980 Monaco GP and a string of podium finishes helped Williams to the constructors\u2019 crown but it was team-mate Alan Jones who won the title.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"c-content-article content-article content-section\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"content-article__grid\">\n            <div class=\"content-article__article\">\n                <h2 class=\"title sanomat\">From the archive<\/h2>\n                                                                            \t\t\n\t\n\n<article class=\"article-item \">\n\n\t\n\t\t<a class=\"article-item__link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/archive\/article\/november-2011\/33\/the-mystery-of-carlos\/\">\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__image article-item__image--cropped article-item__image--featured\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__issue\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<picture>\n            <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Reutemann-lead-450x253.jpg.webp 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" height=\"253\" width=\"450\" alt=\"Patrick Head on the mystery of Carlos Reutemann\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Reutemann-lead-450x253.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Reutemann-lead-450x253.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>\n        <\/picture>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__row proxima\" data-cf-ignore>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__recommended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Great Read\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportmagazine.com\/database\/wp-content\/themes\/motor-sport-magazine\/public\/dist\/svgs\/great-read-icon.svg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Great Read<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__tag tag tag--group\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Archive<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"article-item__title article-item__title--cropped sanomat\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPatrick Head on the mystery of Carlos Reutemann\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__excerpt\" data-cf-ignore>\n\t\t\t\t<p>I am sometimes asked about past Williams drivers and Carlos Reutemann in particular, who is always referred to as enigmatic because he was sparing with his true thoughts and often&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__meta proxima\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"article-item__date\">November 2011\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIssue<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-item__author\">By\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPatrick Head<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\n<\/article>                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"content-article__content user-content\">\n                <p>Reutemann started 1981 in determined mood \u2013 tired of partnering successive world champions, he wanted F1\u2019s ultimate prize for himself. He disobeyed team orders to beat Jones in Brazil and found a consistency that had been previously lacking. His second win that year was tinged with tragedy for Osella mechanic Giovanni Amadeo had died in practice for the Belgian GP after walking in front of Reutemann\u2019s car in the pitlane.<\/p>\n<p>Reutemann led the championship all season and qualified on pole position for the title decider in Las Vegas. Young Brabham star Nelson Piquet was a point behind but the 1981 World Championship was Reutemann\u2019s to lose. However, a poor start was followed by a lacklustre, seemingly disinterested race performance hampered by gearbox and handling problems. Piquet passed him on lap 17 to snatch his first title while Reutemann struggled home in an uncompetitive eighth position.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Retirement and subsequent life<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It was a crushing disappointment for Reutemann. He began 1982 with Williams but suddenly announced his immediate retirement after just two GPs. That the team ended the year celebrating Keke Rosberg\u2019s world championship success just emphasised how Reutemann was always in the right car at the wrong time.<\/p>\n<p>He has since turned his attention to politics \u2013 becoming Governor General of his home province and more recently elected to the Argentinian Senate. The winner of 12 GPs, he was renowned as a moody customer who was awesome on his day. However, the world championship and victory in his home race always proved just out of reach.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section
