jodi should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Info/race results

Could anyone help in possibly pointing me in the right direction to finding race results that my Grandfather took part in? My dad knows little as any info was burnt by an evil woman, but all I know is the car he drove, obviously his name and the period he raced in.. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

His name was George Hook, but also went under Alexander Hook, and he drove a Cooper Bristol pre '59.. I don't believe he done any races outside of the UK either..

Hi Jodi thanks for posting I'm sure someone on here will have some leads for you.

Do you have any idea as to who he raced against and how he fared?

Thank you! Unfortunately I don't have too much information.. All I know is he was very good friends with Mike Hawthorn. He stopped racing in 1959, he only really did club level racing I believe.

His main car was a Cooper Bristol, but he did have several other cars which I am trying to source down now.
