RIP Sir Stirling Moss.
Only had the pleasure of meeting him briefly a couple of times but even that was enough to understand why he was so highly respected.
My thoughts are with his family.

RIP, Sir Stirling Moss. ❤️
The man who personified motorsport for generations.
Moss raced in Formula 1 in the sport's romantic age of the 1950s and early 1960s. He will always be remembered.
