Horace Gould (born Horace Harry Twigg 20 September 1918 – 4 November 1968) was a British former racing driver from Bristol England. He participated in 17 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on 17 July 1954, plus numerous non-Championship races.[1] He scored a total of 2 championship points.
The similarity of Gould's build and driving style to those of José Froilán González led to him being dubbed "the Gonzalez of the West Country".[2]
Gould died suddenly, in Southmead, England, of a heart attack, at the age of fifty. His sons Martin, Stephen and Richard still live in Bristol. Martin went into motor racing and raced in Formula 3, and two of his grandchildren Daniel Gould and James Gould also had careers at a young age in motorsport.
