  Sir,
  Having read Motor Sport for several years now, I would like to congratulate the team who produce this wonderful magazine.
  I read with interest the piece on Sir Jackie Stewart’s new book Collage (July issue), or should I say Lady Helen’s book as it seems that she is the… Read more

• A tome on Oliver?

  August 9th, 2010 | Web Editor | No Comments
  

  Sir,
  Being of a somewhat biased nature, I have often thought that Motor Sport is by far the best motor racing magazine on the market. I read the July issue in one go; the feature section on 1970 was magnificent. It brought back a lot of memories, albeit some painful.… Read more

• The magic of March

  August 9th, 2010 | Web Editor | No Comments
  

  Sir,
  As usual, the first thing I do upon a new issue of Motor Sport falling through the letterbox is have a quick flick through. However, I was stopped in my tracks when I reached page 56 of the August issue.
  The photo of that March 701 is just magic.… Read more

  Sir,
  Thank you for Can-Am Revisited in the June issue. As much as I enjoyed it, I do wish you’d mentioned the fact that American Michael Allen was killed at Mosport in 1983. Mike was a true privateer, spending great sums of his time, energy and money to pursue the… Read more

  Sir,
  I was reading the editorial of the July issue, describing the Lotus 38 that Jim Clark drove to Indianapolis glory. Mr Smith finishes by stating that a 2055 issue of Motor Sport with a 2010 Dallara on the cover would not light his fire. While I agree that contemporary… Read more

  Sir,
  I’ve just read Eoin Young’s article on Steve McQueen’s film Le Mans (‘Did he lose the plot?’, August issue). Eoin sums up by saying he felt the results fell short of what McQueen wanted and that he failed in portraying the excitement of the race. I have to disagree… Read more
