I'd love to know the bitter and twisted individual who rated it one star.

Anyway fill in the blanks to win the +1 slot? ;)

The race will be nice (if a bit quiet :D) but the chance to meet Sir Jackie is something quite special. Not only was he 3 times world champion but if you look back at his performance he wasn't just a bit quicker than others, he was in a different league. All this at a time when cars were basically death traps and winning races just meant driving as fast as you can. Balls of steel spring to mind.

Completely agree with this after watching documentaries and seeing video footage of the man on track.
