Brilliant Bob Wollek

Sebring is virtually upon us.

Anticipation is high this year and Sportscar Racing looks set for a great year, but remember that this will mark the 4th anniversary of the departure of Bob from this world.

Still my favourite ever.

RIP Bob Wollek

Very sadly missed.

To have a long racing career, much of it in a perilous era, and then to die in such a way is just tragic.

Not by me either - I was presented with the Bob Wollek Trophee (yes that is is the correct spelling) at Donington Park a couple of years ago. It's the brake disc off a Porsche made into a clock and it has pride of place on my mantlepiece.

You can! It was given to me at a race meeting at Donington Park in 2003. Apparently the award ws given to one marshal at each of the race meetings. I was the honoured recipient of the Donington Park round.

Please - can we leave the ad hoc stuff to PMs.

This is about Bob, nothing else.

Cheers folks.

Surely an award presented in the man's name is relevant? Not exactly ad hoc.....

The fact that there is an honour in Bob's name is a fine tribute to the man.

Indeed it is. Just after I received the trophy an article appeared in Daily Sportscar about it. Even Johnny Mowlem was pleased when he heard how delighted I was to receive it.

Bob was a lovely man and a brilliant racer and I'm proud to have a trophy with his name on it in my home.
