I hope he and Bruce are sharing a good laugh.  Probably his greatest achievement was guiding the Mclaren team in the immediate aftermath of Bruce's death and setting them on course for greatness in the seventies.  Not always a easy character to get along with, he had stormy but productive relationships with most of his star drivers (Peter Revson, Emmo, James Hunt).
Rest in peace Wiener
