Why I follow F1 Catching up on racing news after a busy few days away, I noticed an obit for privateer team-owner Rob Walker.  He's most famous for his partnership with Stirling Moss, but  I remember him for his reports from F1 races that appeared in Road & Track in the 70s.  Reading these articles is what got me interested in F1. Now I wish I had all my back issues, so I could relive those races (which appeared in R&T months after the races they detailed). Here's a more extensive obit from the Guardian. 10:12:48 AM
