So glad they showed the John Surtees documentary, after the change to the scheduling first time it was broadcast in 2015 meant I missed it. Very touching documentary, especially the bit at the end with Henry, they couldn't have not mentioned that. What a gentleman to the end John was and typical Enzo, angry at the time, but never held grudges

And the one on Byrne was just like the driver, very fascinating. Some drivers are pushovers, but Tommy always put his foot down, even if it did prove to be his undoing in F1. Would have loved to seen his 83-84 seasons in Euro F3 on there, especially his race in Monaco in 84. But all in all a great documentary and one who shouldn't be forgotten. The only other one who gave 100% and never got to the top was Perry McCarthy
