My motor racing career started with the most basic form of car, a 1952 Ford Anglia E93A, which I towed to stock car meetings at a track near my home in Dublin City, Ireland. I crashed it, bashed it, took it home after the race and fixed it, so I could do it all over again another day. I was 16 years old and passionate about driving and racing. It wasn’t until 1973, aged 21, when I got into Formula…

Daly failed to qualify this Hesketh 308E for three early GPs in 1978, but later switched to Ensign and scored his first F1 point in Canada’s season finale.
