Understatement never did much for Henry O’Neal de Hane Segrave. First British driver to win a Grand Prix and seven more major races, three land speed records, German and European speedboat championships and the water speed record. Next March marks 90 years since he did 231.44mph at Daytona with Golden Arrow. Modest to a fault, he is now remembered through a JD Wetherspoon’s pub in Southport and an RAC Trophy.
