Awful news. I've been seriously impressed by how well he and Nick have the Mygale working this year - great combative drives at Oulton and Silverstone.

I worked at FPA the year Joe won the championship. He was a lovely guy who was always good fun to be around.

RIP Joe.

Very saddening news.
I met Joe on several occasions and engineered a Caterham for him at a few races.
Deeply saddened as his JTR squad was stepping up to fight the big guns in F3.

My thoughts go out to his brother Nick and his family.

I agree, he was a top team manager. I understand his management style would have taken him a long way.
Absolutely shocking news, my thoughts are with the family. I do hope Nick continues racing...

shocking news. Only met him once, but he was very friendly and we shared stories about racing and how to really drive an fpa. My thoughts are with the family.

Met Joe a number of times through our mutual work, and he was a pleasure to deal with.

A really great chap & bucket loads of enthusiasm for the sport we all love so much. He will be solely missed by all who know him more than I & the thoughts of all our team are with the family & friends.

st!, not really sure what to say. Only met him once. lovely guy.

I only knew of him, but have spent the week with many of his best mates & ex colleagues, to say they all lost a best friend would be an understatement. To see the faces of his friends getting the phonecall is truly gutting, we've all sat back & thought of life this week.


RIP to a genuinely nice guy, your mates are thinking of you for sure
