That sucks. Four talented Frenchman we've lost in the past couple of months. First Tambay, then Streiff, then Ferte and now Jabouille
He certainly deserves credit for developing the Turbo and giving Renault their first win. It's unfortunate that his win was overshadowed by the legendaru battle for second between Rene and Gilles. Shame his career ended with those broken legs, but he went on to be a great engineer. Of course he was one time Laffite's brother in law
RIP Jean-Pierre
