That's sad news. I've always liked Dan Gurney, a great racer and his Eagle Weslake F1 car from the sixties is one of THE most beautiful cars ever to have graced the sport in my opinion (wish I could afford the 1:12 MFH kit, I'd buy it in a heartbeat!).

He'll be sadly missed, R.I.P. Dan. Sad

Sad news. A nice tribute from his former team mate and friend Tony Brooks:
