    Sad news and a big shock. He was only on twitter the other day in a photo about the race number that Jenson had picked. Seemed such a genuinely nice guy. RIP :(

    I met him and Jenson in 2001 just as Jenson was about to leave Williams for Benetton. John was really down to earth and very passionate about the sport, you couldn't shut him up he was so proud and enthusiastic for his son.

    1 of the reasons why he came across as such a nice guy. Unlike other fathers who are close to their son's when in racing
