Yep, I see that too. For me though, I have no recollection of seeing him race, although I probably did. My late Mum always used to tell me of an occasion at Goodwood where Stirling held me as a small child and put me in his car, although sadly I have no recollection of this! For me - and no doubt for many others, particularly Brits, he personified the top racer, supremely fast and a gent to boot. That he didn't amass titles and stats like Mr. Vettel was a matter of circumstance. For me it will always be 'Who do you think you are, Stirling Moss?'.....
