    RIP Paul Newman

    We should all spare a thought for Paul Newman, who passed away last night. He was a fantastic actor, dedicated philanthropist, and a great personality in the world of motor racing until the end. He will be missed.

    a comment on the bbc have your say page;

    The world has lost a great actor and humanitarian. My condolences to his family and friends I am certain Steve McQueen and he are entering their vehicles, starting their engines and getting ready to race. Who would bet on the winner of that race? The mantle of " cool " passes and perhaps the word should be retired.

    Re: RIP Paul Newman

    End of an era . James Dean, Steve McQueen, James Coburn and Paul Newman were all post WW2 orig generation sports car nuts whose day jobs happened to be acting.

    These days , Hollywood celebs can't be seen " racing " 'cause their PR folks say that ain't green .
    Or they've participated in those charity " bumper car " track events preceding events such as the Long Beach Grand Prix.

    He was a true gentleman, I used to live in the same town Weston, CT, and would see him sometimes in the small town centre
