Roy Salvadori RIP

Post by Oldfart »

Spotted that Roy passed away 3rd June. Yet another. The racetrack in the sky is filling a bit fast lately.

Amazing? both Roy and Carrol Shelby passing so close together this year, both won the 59 Le Mans for Aston Martin which made them very famous.

Or more correctly, made it to NZ for the Internationals (before the Tasman series was devised) :)

And you can Ian Burgess to the list of F1 drivers who raced in NZ. He died last month
