1966 Jackie Stewart Accident at Spa - 1966 belgian gp - jack brabham (brabham), jackie stewart (brm)1.jpg

Thank you! Sir Jackie is still my favorite F1 driver. He's one of the
smartest men in Formula 1, he retired when he was on top & didn't wait
til his on track performance started dropping.

Did you see Sir Jackie on 'Top Gear' a few years ago? He took James May out
on a race track and got him to save 20 seconds off of his best time! I
didn't think it possible. Those old Top Gear shows are being shown on the
cable channel "BBC America" these days.

And he was a perfect gentleman throughout his career, unlike the snarky
demigods in today's F-1.
