Once the drummer with Swedish pop band ABBA, Tommy ‘Slim’ Borgudd only began to race seriously when he was in his thirties, but that didn’t stop him impressing in both the Swedish and European Formula Three championships in 1978/79. In 1981 Borgudd secured the funding for an F1 drive with ATS, but it proved a difficult season and sixth place in Great Britain was his only reward. He subsequently moved to Tyrrell in 1982, but was replaced when his funding ran dry.
