Yes top man. Loved seeing him at Goodwood Revival enjoying his retirement while sliding a car round the track.
RIP Sir Stirling

RIP Sir,

A true legend!
I will never forget that RLM interview after Qually for the legends race in 2011, when he finally announced that he would never get in a racing car again (at the grand age of 81!)
He said that he scared himself so much that he actually closed his eyes momentarily going down the Mulsanne - in the same that most of us of us would!

England has lost one of her finest.
Baldrick, my Lord! But I can change it to Ploppy if it'll make things easier.
