Four years ago today a wonderful man left us too soon.

John was a special person who was not only highly successful throughout his business career and beforehand as a navigator in the RAF but became one of the very best Motor Racing “Clerks of the Course” the UK has ever seen. He was firm but fair and is sorely missed by the Motorsport community.

We all miss you John and always will.

PS. Here again is the 15 minute tribute to John made by Claire Smith that was played at his Life Celebration at Brands Hatch in July 2019. It was there where he started his motorsport career on the bank.
