The man behind some great cars and a driving force for M sport.
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

I saw him race motorbikes at the Goodwood Revival, and he actually was quite nifty. Still, it's a sorry end. RIP.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

I remember watching BMW win at Le Mans in '99 and being so happy for the team. Sad to hear that someone so involved in that victory has gone to the great racetrack in the sky.  Terribly sad circumstances as well.  RIP
