The sad news of the passing of John Surtees. Perhaps the most overlooked multiple world champion ever.

Sad news
A true great if not the greatest simply because he was World Champ on two and four wheels

Watched the Surtees documentary on BBC4 last night, didn't realise just how successful he was and what a humble chap!
Some of his cars and bikes must be worth millions.

+1 Midas. And despite his success and his charitable work was never significantly honoured. In today's world what would 6+1 WCs be worth.

I was fortunate to be in his company in a launch for Monroe Shock Absorbers at a motor trade venue in Grangemouth Scotland many many years ago probably early sixties. A true Gentleman mixed with the trade customers in a very informal manner chatted to most of my customers a very enjoyable evening in the company of a TRUE GREAT really very sad he did not receive the recognition he should have. Very much doubt any other will emulate him
