Russell Spence............
Was the Russell Spence racing a Radical at Combe yesterday the same Russell Spence from the mid 80's British F3 series?

The one in the late nineties BTCC was the same as the ex F3/F3000 driver. Don't know what he's doing now though.

That was a biggie.
As I recall, he was dropped after that, and Will Hoy took over for the rest of the season. |

Russell Spence is a guy that had the talent to go to F1.

Russell currently spends most of his time running the family construction business in London. My father did some consultancy work for him last year. I think it's unlikely to be the same guy as he expressed no desire to go racing again when my dad asked him.
