Luigi Fagioli was competing in the 1951 French Grand Prix, but during a pit stop, the team told him he had to leave the cockpit and give the car to Juan Manuel Fangio, who had retired from the race earlier on. Enraged, Fagioli left the pits and immediately quit the sport, never to return. Fangio would later go on to win the race, making Fagioli not only the oldest Grand Prix winner in recorded history at 53 years, but also the only driver to have won a Grand Prix after ending his career.
Hans Heyer, what a legend.

It never ceases to amaze me how wild things used to be 30-40 years ago. It's almost unbelievable that it's the same world we're talking about.
Kimi's rear wing flying all of sudden could make the list (2004 Hockenheim)
