If we could take the time to remember today John Cooper. While he's best and deservedly remembered for the rear engined revolution in Formula One, re-started in 1958 after the false start of the Auto Unions of the mid-thirties, but also for developing on of the best Touring Cars of all time, the Morris Mini Cooper series of cars.
John Cooper, rest in peace. yours Mark Jones |

Sad news indeed!
He made an immeasurable contribution to many forms of motorsport. There will in all probability, never be another like him. |
