Mind you, I often wondered what he was actually smoking back then, and whether that might have had some bearing on some of his manoeuvres on track!

Mike I can assure you that I am not "strange" (others may have a different view) and have never smoked in my life.
However I have always been a "laid back" person and have never panicked over anything and that certainly helped in my racing career.
Incidentally I have done a fair bit of cave diving in my time (topical at this moment) and the last thing you want to be is of a nervous disposition.
