50 years ago today the world’s greatest racing driver Jim Clark was killed deeply shocking this twelve year old. But his loss also ignited a changed understanding of safety on track and road. If the very best can be lost then we need safer cars & roads not just better drivers.

On this day 50 years ago, two-time Formula 1 World Champion ‘Flying Scot’ Jim Clark died in an accident in Hockenheim, Germany at the age of just 32. In 2009, The Times placed him at the top of a list of the greatest-ever Formula One drivers. Read more bbc.in/2Hg1v8F

50 years ago, the world lost one of the greatest racing drivers, Jim Clark. Of all the drivers in the history of the sport, he is the one driver I wish I could have watched from trackside. #Legend

April 7th 1968, the saddest day of my life. Jim Clark the greatest driver of all time was lost. No-one inspired more both with his talent on the track and his charm off it. Forever remembered.

A salute to the extraordinary Jim Clark, maybe the greatest F1 driver of all time, who lost his life at a tree-lined Hockenheim 50 years ago today. It reverberates to this day. He was something very special.
