The 1964 Season

John Surtees made history as the only person to win world championships on both two and four wheels, taking the F1 crown for Ferrari after his earlier motorcycle titles. The season produced one of the closest finishes ever, with Surtees, Graham Hill and Jim Clark all able to win the title at the final round in Mexico.

In a tense Mexican Grand Prix, Clark led until a late mechanical failure, and Ferrari team-mate Lorenzo Bandini moved aside to let Surtees take the points he needed for the championship. Ferrari also claimed the Constructors' title in a dramatic three-way showdown.
