Hall]] Trophy in [[1970 British Formula Three season|1970]].<ref>{{cite web|author=M.G.D.|title =F3 Review|url=http://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/november-1970/30/f3-review|accessdate=13 May 2016|website= [[Motor Sport (magazine)|Motor Sport]] magazine archive|date= November 1970|page=30}}</ref> ==Career== Trimmer was born in [[Maidenhead]], [[Berkshire]]. He won the prestigious [[Monaco Grand Prix Formula Three support race|Monaco F3 Race]] in 1970 driving a Brabham BT-28 and finished runner-up to [[Patrick Depailler]] in the 1972 edition. Trimmer entered six [[Formula One]] World Championship Grands Prix with uncompetitive teams, firstly [[Maki Engineering|Maki]] for four races in 1975 and 1976, resulting in four failures to qualify. He then entered the [[1977 British Grand Prix]] (failed to pre-qualify) and the [[1978 British Grand Prix]] (failed to qualify), with the Melchester Racing Team, driving a [[Surtees Racing Organisation|Surtees]] [[Surtees TS19|TS19]] and a [[McLaren]] [[McLaren M23|M23]] respectively. However, also driving the Melchester McLaren, he finished a superb third in the rain-soaked [[XXX BRDC International Trophy|1978]] [[BRDC International Trophy]] non-Championship race at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]], coming home ahead of many of the greats of Formula One. That year he won the [[British Formula One Championship|British Aurora F1 Championship]]. Trimmer was also one of the few people to drive the [[Connew]] Formula One car, in its last race (in later [[Formula 5000]] specification) in 1973. However the car collided with a barrier at [[Brands Hatch]] after a rear damper gave way.<ref>{{cite web|last =Lawrence|first =Mike|title =The story of the Connew GP car|url =http://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/august-1986/26/story-connew-gp-car|website = [[Motor Sport (magazine)|Motor Sport]] magazine archive|date=August 1986|page=26|accessdate =29 November 2014}}</ref> Other than World Championship races, Trimmer raced in many non-championship F1 races and is perhaps one of the drivers who drove the greatest variety of Formula One cars ever. The list includes the great [[Lotus 72]] at the 1971 Race of Champions, the [[March 701]], a [[Lotus 49]], [[Fittipaldi F8]] and the one-off Safir RJ-02 (a.k.a. Token RJ-02), accessing from the old times "tubby" [[Lotus 49]] up to a real [[Ground effect (cars)|wing-car]] Fittipaldi F8. ==Racing record== ===Complete Formula One World Championship results=== ([[:Template:F1 driver results legend 2|key]]) (Races in '''bold''' indicate pole position; races in ''italics'' indicate fastest lap) {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center; font-size:90%" !
