I know that many of you will know the name and more would know the voice.

Sadly passed away this evening.

Far too young.

RIP

Shocking and sad news. A massive & enthusiastic motorsport fan/ journalist. Will be massively missed. Have enjoyed his recent 'cheeky' Twitter drawings.....

Fever indeed.

My thoughts are with his family. I meet his sons at Brooklands a few times while I was marshalling and you could see he was passing the passion on to them.

How sad, a very likeable guy who was very much a part of Goodwood as the cars providing great commentary, and a regular at the circuit he will certainly be missed.

Awful news. The accident happened close to where I live and I understand he was en route back from Goodwood.

Shocking and Sad news to wake up to - and a reminder to us all to crack on and do things because you never know...

Thoughts with his wife and young family who have just had a massive part of their lives wrenched from them

So very sorry to hear of Henry's sudden passing - I am sure I am one of many people who knew him, worked with him at times, and always loved seeing his knowledge and enthusiasm in full flow.

My deepest sympathy to his family. He will be sorely missed there, and in the sporting world.

RIP Henry.

I just found out. So shocking, so sad. I raced at the Revival in 2016 and he is such a nice bloke to be interviewed by. Loved his tweets too. Fever!

What a tragic loss. RIPHHF.

Very sad news. Loved following him on twitter, his drawings of famous cars for his kids and his enthusiasm for the sport.

RIP and condolences to his family.

That is very sad, he interviewed me last year, a genuinely nice guy who seemed so very comfortable behind the microphone and in front of the cameras.
