Pedro Rodríguez: The Mexican Maestro

Pedro Rodríguez: The Mexican Maestro

Pedro Rodríguez was a driver who transcended the machinery he drove. Known as one of the greatest "wet weather" masters in history, he brought a level of fearlessness to the grid that few could match.

This print honors Pedro at the 1971 South African GP at Kyalami. Behind him, the Yardley BRM P160, the car he took to his final podiums. Pedro was a man of style, speed, and immense bravery whose legacy still inspires every Mexican driver who makes it to the big stage.
