D-Brief: What's been happening in my world?

Sunday, 10th September 2006

I did just that, taking my life in my hands, throwing the car on my back and squeezing everything from it - all to be sixth on the grid, some two seconds off the pace!

I have just arrived here to read that Peter Brock was killed in a car he was driving in a Targa Rally in Western Australia. The whole nation is in shock and in mourning for a guy who touched so many people. It is like Ayrton Senna dying and the effect it had in Brazil. I knew Peter, and he and his wife Bev welcomed me to their home, where I stayed a couple of times, enjoying their company. Like the rest of Australia, I am deeply sad at this time.

I have written a tribute to Peter in my Life section of the web.
