RIP John Surtees

[Lowe]

Was a tough call whether to put this in Automotive or not, but figured there might be more traffic in here. Was very sad to find out about his passing, the guy was a genuine legend winning both car and bike Grand Prix titles. RIP

Amen to that. A true sporting legend.

Given the way both F1 and motoGP have changed, I wonder if his dual title will EVER be matched? Though I seem to remember strong rumours that Rossi was planning an F1 move.

Anyway, RIP, John.
