We heard he had gone into hospital Sunday as we watched F-1 coverage from
Valencia. I watched him race at the Glen back in the late 50s and early 60s.
I got to meet him, chat a little, and got his autograph in 2002 in Santa Fe
and will treasure that experience always. The only American born world
champion and a great gentleman.

Godspeed, Phil...

Cheers!!
Jim
