One of the greatest men in Formula One passed away today. He didn't drive a race car, didn't engineer or design race cars. And yet he may have contributed more to the sport than anyone else over the last 40 or so years. Tonight I'm raising a glass to Professor Sid Watkins, who kept many, many drivers safe, and tended lovingly to those he could not save.
RIP Sid.
