    Sorry to read this, especially as he was still young. I enjoyed his knowledgeable writings over the years.

    RIP Alan indeed. I remember excitedly waiting for his reports to be published, especially when the red cars had won. Part of my "analogue" childhood.

    I pretty much 'grew up' in the motorsport world reading his words.

    RIP

    One of the very bets in the buisness, any f.1 die hard is also a fan of autocourse...

    Sad time for Motorsports, He was arguably one of the best reporters in the F-1 business, and was always reliable a true insider. his contributions will be sorely missed.
