F1 John Surtees RIP

[Redline]

Can't let the passing of one of our motor racing greats go without comment.

I'm sure many of us watched John race and win on both two and four wheels.

A sad loss to motor racing.

It only seems like yesterday that i watched him going up the hill at Goodwood.

The man was a true Gentleman, and there's very few of them left. R.I.P. Sir John.

Tony.

Sad loss . Met JS at Goodwood FOS a couple of years ago, he just wandered over to where I was standing with a couple of other spectators & said, "Hello lads, enjoying the day?" & just chatted away to us - top bloke!

A gentleman racer the likes of which we will never see again.

 

[Nodzed]

Its very unlikely we will see his sort of achievements again in motor sports.
