Very sad to hear about Charlie Whiting. Great mechanic and FIA Race Director. He and his brother Nick, who was a very fast racing driver, contributed much to motor sport.

A very happy birthday to Mauro Forghieri, designer of two of my all-time favourite cars - the 1967 Ferrari 330 P4 Spyder and the 1968 V12 Ferrari F1.

Remembering a Border farmer named Jim Clark, who was born on this day. Quiet, humble, naturally athletic, musical, intelligent, curious, loyal... and supremely fast in anything on wheels.
