Some people complain that todays drivers are too politically correct and PR-oriented to say anything interesting. Not all drivers have been like that!
What driver is reported to have called Nigel Mansell “stupid”, Mansell’s wife “ugly”, Enzo Ferrari “senile” and Ayrton Senna “gay” in a magazine interview? _________________ Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. |

Yes. From everything I read of him, it seems he had a special gift for making enemies.

It was said Jim Clark only ever feared one driver. Who was he? _________________ Hear Truth. See Truth. Speak Truth. |

Just a minor clarification.
Clark said this in the sense that he 'feared' Dan's driving ability. There was no suggestion that he adopted intimidatory driving tactics. _________________ The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know. |
