    Re: Rohrl and Jackie Stewart at Geneva

    With Rohrl and Stewart above are a friend and Stewart's son.  I have always admired Stewart for retiring on top, as opposed to some other drivers (Schumacher?) and athletes.  I was  with Brian Redman in the paddock at Watkins Glen in the 1970s when Stewart's fellow Tyrell driver--Francois Cevert--was killed in practice.  Stewart and the team withdrew from the race, and I don't think Stewart ever raced again with true heart, if at all.

    Sir Jackie was two rows ahead of me in the aircraft on my flight back from the show.

    But Schumacher did retire on top, no?  Oh, you mean stay retired..... Smiley

    Yes, I meant stay retired, as I know he and Rosburg and now driving for Mercedes.  Schumacher was at the Mercedes stand in Geneva, and of course was the focus of a media frenzy.

    I wonder what Walter was telling them about the 918.

    I am glad to see J. Stewart's son in the picture!

    Last time I've heard of him was when he retired from Stewart Grand Prix in 2000(?) due to serious health problems.
