He became the youngest man ever at that point to take pole position, at the Long Beach Grand Prix. The Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach is an Open-wheel race held on a temporary road course in Long Beach California. De Cesaris was also only the second Alfa Romeo driver to capture a pole since 1952. [4] But his immaturity was also on display. Lapping a slower car, de Cesaris waved his fist wildly, only to miss a gear and let Niki Lauda get past.

De Cesaris was not injured but flames emanated from the rear of his Alfa Romeo as he climbed out of its battered cockpit. [5]
From this point onwards, de Cesaris was nearly always seen by most in the paddock as prone to occasional brilliance but more often than not, erratic behaviour. 1982 saw a podium finish at Monte Carlo and another point in Canada.

The momentum wasn't sustained in 1984 when he moved to Ligier, despite its promising Renault turbo engines. Three points were little reward for a season of hard charging.
1985 was even worse. A strong fourth place at Monaco showed early promise but the season turned into a dismaying one. At the Austrian Grand Prix de Cesaris suffered a massive crash after 13 laps. He left the track on an ultra-fast left-hander. On a corner without tyre walls or armco-barriers, Andrea met a sloping grass bank, dug in, and tumbled end over end. He was lucky to emerge from the wreck covered in splattered mud. Still stiff and sore, he was off-form in the next race in Holland. Hot-headed team boss Guy Ligier lost patience and de Cesaris was fired. A classic Ligier quote from this time, "I can no longer afford the services of this young man".

Two races later it was Andrea's turn to play the villain. After an early delay he was being lapped by Dallara team-mate Alex Caffi when he ran his fellow Italian into the wall, robbing the team of another podium. Alessandro "Alex" Caffi (born 18 March 1964) is a former Formula One driver from Italy.

His speed had never been in doubt, but de Cesaris was now driving with his head much more than his heart, and a restraint that had been missing during much of his first ten years in Formula One. A fast and friendly car helped, but Andrea's maturity behind the wheel was now in no doubt.
His day of days came during the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Franchorchamps. The 1991 Belgian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Spa-Francorchamps on August 25, 1991. The Belgian circuit is widely recognised as the greatest test of driver skill in modern racing. It was a place de Cesaris has always excelled.

The Ilmor V-10 powered Tyrrell 020 was a handy machine, and de Cesaris was in the points three more times during the season culminating in an impressive fourth place in the Japanese Grand Prix.

The return didn't start well when de Cesaris wrote off a chassis during testing. He crashed again during the tragic event at Imola due to poor fitness having not driven a race distance in six months.
But, ever the Monaco specialist, he bounced back in Monte Carlo. In a mature drive, de Cesaris stayed away from trouble and away from the barriers to take a superb fourth place. Irvine returned for the next race but Sauber had noticed the Italian's form, and signed him to replace the injured Karl Wendlinger in the Mercedes-powered machines. Sauber is a Swiss constructor of racing cars for Sportscar racing and Formula One. Mercedes Juniors Wendlinger started his career in Karting and in Formula Ford before entering the German Formula 3 Championship in 1988
Andrea's first race for Sauber was his 200th Grand Prix in Canada. Although he retired after 24 laps, he was again in the points at the next event, the French Grand Prix at Magny-Cours. The French Grand Prix ( Grand Prix de France) is a race held as part of Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile 's annual Formula One automobile Magny-Cours is a commune in the Nièvre département, in central France. However the emergency changes to technical regulations made the Sauber a handful to drive.

The 1994 European Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held on October 16 1994 at the Circuito Permanente de Jerez, Jerez Spain. After this, Sauber kept his promise to return the car to Karl Wendlinger if he was fit enough.

Early career Like many racing drivers he began in karts at age 5 winning numerous events before graduating to Formula Ford at the early age of age 14
Legacy
It is perhaps unfair that de Cesaris never got the break his talent deserved, and that his reputation should be tarnished by his early misadventures. His later years demonstrated that, in a quick and reliable car, he could be relied upon to bring home decent results.
A popular joke often told during the 1981 season was: Q- Why did McLaren assign Andre car number eight? A- So the number can be read when the car is upside down.
