He might be small and "unknown" ...  but there's more to Pedro Rodriguez
than perhaps known by you and me...  anyway - it's a great story:

Absolutely agree - a really touching portrait, of both of the Hermanos
Rodriguez, actually.

Just read it myself earlier today, great story, one of the reasons I try
not to miss the weekly "ask Nigel" on Autosport, he may not be the most
objective person at all times :-), but his knowledge of F1 and Sportscar
racing is substantial, and his writing style is pretty good too, it's
usually a good read

You can find another "Autosport personality" over on
http://www.jimbamber.co.uk great racing cartoons, his latest is a
tribute to Rally driver Tony Pond who passed away on Feb 7th from cancer

Beers and cheers

Mmmm.  Great article.

Reading about his sportscar antics really has me wishing Papy would do
a Sportscar Legends game. =(

Atleast I took the tome to mark my post 'OT' Tom...  so that those who might
not like OT-stuff can avoid it...

Would it hurt you much to do the same...?

Subject: "96 Ferrari F1: Irvine/Schumacher"

Now, I'm not a genius, but it was pretty clear before I read this post that
it was not sim-related.  Still, I read it and it didn't burn my eyes.  I've
been here since '93, and I don't care if OT stuff like this mixes its way
into r.a.s., as the group dynamic generally dictates the ratio between
sim-related and OT stuff, so it never gets "out of hand".  I found the
netiquette follow-ups in that thread to be much more irrelevant.
