Alan "Al" Victor Pease (15 October 1921 – 4 May 2014) was a British-Canadian motor racing driver, who was born in Darlington, England.
He holds the unusual accolade of being the only driver to be disqualified from a Formula One World Championship race due to being too slow.
Growing up in England, he joined the British Army as a young man, serving in India, Rhodesia and Egypt.
In response, Matra owner, Ken Tyrrell, protested to the officials and had Pease disqualified.
[3] His Formula One career was limited to three Canadian Grands Prix, consisting of a non-classification (1967, finishing 43 laps behind the leaders), a failure to start (engine trouble in 1968), and a disqualification (1969).
