One of the best ever, I'm sure his memory will always remain for those lucky enough to have seen him race - sadly I am too young!

I'm young as well, but had the chance to meet him.
Was a great guy, unpredictable and fast as no one at his time. Sdly with those car in those day soon or later someone like him had to have a huge crash. Is loved also from people that never have seen him racing because his races were legendary, but also F1 was much different and probably more fun. Anyway I will never forget him. |
