Another gone.

The TWR Jag's were a vivid memory in the Silk Cut livery for me back in the day.

 

RIP.

Sad news, must admit I wasn't aware of his back story.. 

 

RIP  John Crichton-Stuart, the seventh Marquess of Bute.

Yes very sad, also a shame that he wasn't able to show his full potential in F1 due to Senna's priority in the team!

[Rob Hunter - Club Secretary]

We had so many British "nearly men" in the 80's and Johnny was one of the most talented, he was totally dominant in British F3 the year after the amazing Senna/Brundle battle for the championship.

 

RIP

I met him as his physio lived in kings Lynn and was a friend of mine. A really nice down to earth guy who took a real interest in the work I was doing with my dad tuning two stroke outboard engines..
