Died from severe injuries sustained in the German GP. Friend and regular driver for Bob Gerard, he mainly raced in club and Formula Libre events in the UK in his tragically short career. He was proud to come from Leicestershire, and at his local circuit, Mallory Park, he often proved unbeatable, taking at least 13 wins, and winning the 1964 Bob Gerard Mallory Park Championship.
