On this episode of Chequered Past, we explore the key moments in motorsport history that took place on June 4.

🏁 At Zandvoort in 1967, Jim Clark and the Lotus 49 made history with the debut of the Ford-Cosworth DFV engine – a game-changer that reshaped Formula 1

🏁We remember Parnelli Jones, the legendary American racer who died on this day in 2024, reflecting on his fearless career across IndyCar, NASCAR, and beyond.

🏁 And we revisit the cancellation of the 2021 Singapore Grand Prix, a stark reminder of how the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted even the fastest sport on earth.

Three stories. One date. A journey through innovation, legacy, and global upheaval.
