Hearing about Niki Lauda brings back memories of the death of the Swedish F1 racer Ronnie Peterson in 1978. I was sitting on a commuter train, and heard whispers moving through the coach saying "Ronnie Peterson just crashed". There were of course no mobile phones at that time, so the information came from F1 fans who were following the race while listening to their portable FM radios. Some survive, some die. George Harrison (of Beatles fame) later dedicated his song "Faster" to the memory of Ronnie Peterson. |
