"On Friday Rudi (Walch) called me from the States to inform me about Bob's terrible accident; you know Bob wanted to race with us in the FIA GT races and we had also a project for Le Mans. The same day my doctors informed me that I have a brain tumour and I have to undergo brain surgery. I plan to come back to the racetrack for the Hungarian (FIA GT) event."<BR> <BR> That's a suitably positive way for a racer to conclude this sad piece.<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
