A New Year's celebration for the 'X' factor
F1i wishes a happy birthday to the great Jacky Ickx, who turns 76-years-young on this first day of the year. As one of motorsport's greatest all-rounders, the legendary Belgian often put his rivals in his shade over he course of his long and successful career, be it in Formula 1, sportscar racing, Can-Am or in the grueling Paris-Dakar rally-raid event.
