Sadly gone now but the one person i would love to have shook hands with was
NEIL ARMSTRONG
NEIL ARMSTRONG
@sidibear i would have liked to meet your grandfather, sounds like a real interesting character. Do you do family tree Paul? x
Dave Grohl, just so I could wind my missus up about it.....!
The VERY LAST whoever/whatever I'd want to meet!Lewis Hamilton
The VERT LAST whatever I'd want to meet, I'd be VERY rude!!!! OTT rude, even.
Why? A person who has wonderful morals and ethic, integrity, a person who has suffered a life of racism and prejudice and still managed to become one of the worlds greatest Formula 1 drivers in a sport that has been dominated by rich white men and then went on to beat pretty much every record in the book for it. A person who opened a charity with his own money to support getting underprivileged kids into the sport from engineers to drivers and a commission to eek out racism in the sport, which in turn begins to stamp it out in other sports and society, a much needed thing.
A true role model for youngsters, and and a great ambassador for the sport.
PS: followed F1 from late 60's, a religion for me, some would say: but Hamilton, NO!
My view, end of - here. But would love to sit and chat with you to discuss.A cheat of what?
Love to sit with you and chat, honest.Prejudice can often be ingrained without knowing it so I get triggered by it that's all!
I'll say this now, lets keep this thread on topic as this is a much bigger discussion!
Love to sit with you and chat, honest,
Please do not bring 'race' into it or anything else for that matter. I have worked around the world and have lovely friends from all over and none of us talk of race/ethnicity: too sad to bring that into anything! Take care, stay safe, end of!
That’s a blast from the past - used to love watching his programmesnon sporting it would have to be Jacques Cousteau
From a motorsport point of view it would have to be Jim Clarke, a real natural-born racer.
one of many late great drivers that had real driving skill , none of the new lot that the car can almost drive itself.
