Unhappy Sad

Never really been an F1 fan but felt sad today to hear about Lauda. Legend is often a label attached too easily IMHO, but in his case it was certainly true..need to dig out Rush again in the next few days I think

Saw this earlier and it's so true..

"And to think pundits still think Tiger Woods made the greatest sports comeback of all time..."

RIP Niki

Very true.

First there was Charlie Whiting on the eve of the Melbourne GP, and now Niki Lauda coming up to the Monaco GP. Let's hope the voice of F1, Murray Walker, isn't number three.
