Pete the Elaner Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Although I've never followed rally very closely, I remember the name. Always sad to hear the passing of anybody. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
'CHARD Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 A true gentleman and deservedly one of the most decorated top flight drivers of his generation. Only saw him close up the once, at the Banners Gate control before the start of the Sutton Park stage of the 1976 RAC Rally, when I was 10, but I did witness him drive that and other stages probably 20 times. 78 is no age really; R.I.P. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
