Giovanni Lavaggi

Giovanni Lavaggi, an Italian driver born in 1958, came to Formula 1 unusually late, making his debut with Pacific in 1995 at the age of 37.

He followed that first campaign with a stint at Minardi in 1996, bringing his total to seven Grand Prix starts across the two seasons. Both teams occupied the lowest reaches of the mid-1990s grid, and no championship points resulted.

His record of seven starts, two teams and two seasons makes for one of the briefer careers of the era, notable chiefly for how late in life it began.
