About Me

Patrick O'Brien: Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and now living in the South-West of France, my interest in cars and motor racing was sparked at age five when my father - one-time mechanic to South African Champion Frank Brodie - started taking me to local races in 1949. My analytical book ‘Grand Prix, a Century of Racing’ was published in 1994. I have always been fascinated by the perennial problem of how to rate Grand Prix driver performances. In 2002, I derived a methodology which separates driver and car performance. An explanation of my Grand Prix Performance Ratings System is provided elsewhere on this blog. Elected Honorary Member of the Societa per la Storia dell’Automobili Italiana in 1987. Articles published in Motorsport, Automobile Quarterly, Classic & Sports Car, Thoroughbred & Classic Cars, Autosprint, Australian Sports Car World, Het Automobile, Brooklands Books, and Het Klaverblaadje.
