https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/opinion/f1/robin-herd-1939-2019 Robin Herd, who passed away on Tuesday after an extended illness, made his name as Max Mosley’s main partner in the March racing constructor. He was the chief designer of the March Formula 1, F2 and Champ Cars of the 1970s/early 80s and was possessed of great intellect, charm and enthusiasm. He was also instrumental in the careers of Ronnie Peterson, Niki Lauda, Jean-Pierre Jarier, Hans Stuck Jr, Vittorio Brambilla, Bruno Giacomelli and Teo Fabi, acting as an early mentor for them all as well serving as their race engineer.
I recommand anyone to read "Four Guys and a Telephone" by Mike Lawrence to measure the importance of Robin Herd in the MARCH story. MARCH, incidently was formed with the initials of its 4 founders: Mosley, Alan Rees, Coacker and Herd. I met Robin Herd several times and found him a very approachable and modest individual. R.I.P. Robin.
