Juan Pablo Montoya's karting career can be traced back to 198 1 year. 1984 won the national championship of children's go-karting, 1985 and 1986 won the second place and champion in the regional and national youth go-karting competitions respectively. From 1987 to 1989, Montoya won several regional and national youth karting championships. 1990 and 199 1 won the world junior go-karting championship.
1992, this talented young man participated in the American Barber Competition and Renault Formula Competition held in Colombia, and won the championship four times in five starting positions. 1993, Montoya participated in the GTI competition of Colombia National Championship, winning seven championships in eight events and winning the first round in seven games. 1994 won the Sudam 125 kart championship, won the American Barber Saab championship season championship, won the Mexican Formula N three-race championship and won four starting positions. His wonderful performance is not over. 1995 Third place in Formula vauxhall Championship, Bogota 6-hour racing champion.
1996, Montoya won the British F3 champion and the fourth place in the Marlboro Masters, and the Bogota 6-hour racing champion, and represented Mercedes in the ITC race held at Silverstone Circuit. 1997 won the runner-up in the F3000 world championship on behalf of Kyle team. This is his first attempt at F 1 racing. Shortly after being a test driver for Williams, Montoya officially signed a contract with Williams, which laid the foundation for his future in F 1.
1998, Montoya set a new record for the F3000 World Championship with a season score of 65 points and won the championship. In the season of 1999, Williams team manager frank Wilhemlms planned an exchange agreement for Montoya, in which Alex Abidin Zainal DeLay f 1 partner Ralph Schumacher of American Carter Series and Montoya played an important role in Chip Ganassi. Montoya achieved brilliant success, winning the Carter championship in the first year, winning 7 sub-station championships and 7 starting positions, becoming the youngest champion in the history of this event.
Although frank Wilhemlms hopes that Montoya can return to F 1 in the 2000 season, Montoya himself hopes to stay in the Carter Series for at least one more season. After Ganassi replaced the Toyota engine, the reality deviated from his hope, but he still won the ninth place in the Carter Championship, won three championships and seven starting positions. He also won the first Indianapolis 500 competition.
In 200 1 season, Montoya returned to Williams to partner with Schumacher and won his first F 1 victory in Monza. Montoya made several podium appearances in the first season of F 1 and won the starting position three times. His aggressive driving style caused quite a stir in F 1. Colombians are never content to be behind Schumacher. His overtaking Schumacher in Brazil and his fierce confrontation with Villeneuve are still talked about by fans. In 2002, Montoya hoped to win his first F 1 World Championship.
Unfortunately, although Montoya got seven pole positions and won the title of "ranking king", he failed to turn his lead into a final victory. Finally, in the list of train drivers, he ranked third after two Ferrari drivers.
In the 2003 season, the Colombian had been fighting for the driver's championship title before Indianapolis in the United States, and finally he won two races. 2004 will be Montoya's last season with Williams, and he will move to McLaren in 2005.
Montoya also played for BMW Williams in 2004, but only Michael Schumacher and Ferrari starred in this season. The performance of FW26 car was not satisfactory. ralf schumacher missed more than half of the season because of a serious crash, which made the Williams team's already difficult situation worse.
Montoya has been trying to maximize the potential from the unfavorable situation, but although he won the long-lost victory in the last grand prix of the season, the fifth place in the standings finally emphasized the difficulty of the whole season again. Montoya joined McLaren in 2005, and his combination with Kimi Raikkonen is considered to be the most powerful driver lineup in F 1. Roddennis thinks he can squeeze more potential from Montoya (who has participated in 68 grand prix and won 4 sub-station championships).
