That is sad news, I met him at Le Mans a few years ago he was signing posters of the blue print for the Cobra.
There was a massive que due to the fact he spent a few minutes talking to everyone who wanted a poster and did not just scribble his name on it and say next.
There is a good chance they will have a 2 minute silence before the star of this years race as a mark of respect for a true legend.
On the down side he was responsible for our 70mph speed limit on motorways but hey ho I'm sure we can forgive him for that .

I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.
