    Indeed, a great man who achieved much, yet was still very humble.

    And he was still driving historic cars hard well into his 70's.

    I can't see any other driver achieving what Sir Jack did, winning a world championship in a car of hi own making, and then going very close again when he was in hearly 40's.

    Fishcop puts it very well.
