Jean-Denis Délétraz

Jean-Denis Delétraz (October 1, 1963 - Present): Swiss racing driver who participated in three Formula 1 Grands Prix, debuting at the 1994 Australian Grand Prix. Scored two wins in Formula Ford before competing in French Formula Three from 1985-1987, finishing 14th in 1987. Achieved two third-place finishes in the 1988 Formula 3000 season but principally earned his F1 drives as a pay driver. Towards the end of 1994, cash-strapped Larrousse replaced Érik Comas with Delétraz for the final race in Australia.

In 1995, he joined Pacific, but defaulted on payment mid-season with team boss Keith Wiggins stating they weren't willing to keep him on ability alone. His slow qualifying speeds contributed to the introduction of the 107% rule for 1996, with some F1 fans dubbing it the 'Delétraz rule.' Scored zero points across three F1 starts from Australia 1994 to Europe 1995. Post-F1, competed in sports car racing with two class wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
