One of the good guys of past F1.

Very sad.

 

 

If only Senna had listened to him after Ratzenberger died...

[Daryl]

Cant believe he has died. What an absolute legend,he has done so much for the safety of F1 over his career, he will be very much missed in the paddock.

[Ebized]

One of F1's true legends, even though is 'interest' was from the medical standpoint there is no doubt his contribution to the F1 scene has helped to make it sport that no longer suffers from the the horrific outcomes of yesteryears.

 

Sad news indeed.

[Keyser]

RIP

[Leeroy]

Sad news. Few people are dedicated / talented enough to make a real difference in this world and Sid and his family can be proud that he contributed so much during his lifetime.

If there is such thing as an afterlife hopefully he's out fishing with Senna

I remember him in the Senna film. He achieved quite a lot in F1.

RIP Sid, what an absolutely brilliantly dedicated bloke, if you get a chance read "Life At The Limit" by him, great read.
