Ok. Who, when and where?
Champagne celebrations on the podium in F1 - common nowadays but who was the first driver to celebrate a win this way, where did this happen and what year?

1950 French GP at Reims - Juan Manuel Fangio won the race and was presented a bottle of Moet et Chandon by the two guys who owned the firm though apparently, it wasn't actually sprayed on the podium then, it was just kept for later celebrations??

1969 French GP, Jackie Stewart accidentally sprayed champagne over everyone by putting his thumb over the end of the bottle to try and stop the flow from an over pressurised bottle that he had just decorked!!
