If I remember correctly...... (at 7:45 this morning)

"Was Barry Sheene your Idol?"
"No, but....." [img]images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

"What do you think he brought to motorcycling"
"I didn't follow him really...." [img]images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Thank God they interviewed Damon Hill later. [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thoughts are with the family,
Paul
