Sadly, Dan Gurney has passed away after complications from pneumonia. America's first proper F1 driver and inventor of podium champagne spraying as a LeMans winner with his all American team in 1967.
I was lucky enough to meet him a couple of times during his visits to Goodwood in recent years, once even having my foot nearly run over as he returned his stunning Eagle mk1 to the pits.

RIP
