I agree -- great site.

On the subject of past Grand Prix drivers -- I just finished reading Adam Cooper's recent biography of Piers Courage ("Piers Courage -- Last of the Gentleman Racers"). For anyone who's interested in Formula One as it was in the late sixties and early seventies, (my favorite era): don't miss this book! And it would be interesting for fans of modern F1 as well, as it's also the story of Frank Williams' entry into the series.

FYI, Richie Jenkins, who created and maintains the WATN list, posts fairly regularly to the AtlasF1 Nostalgia Forum. A recent addition to that group is Loti Irwin (Chris' wife, Charlie Lucas' sister), under the handle "LOTI." She recently implied there that the book was a bit too (paraphrasing) rose-colored, but never went into specifics.
