September 2017 Departing Drivers Photo: BRDC Archive Dear Mr. Ganley: Your article “Departing Drivers,” in the current issue of Vintage Racecar is quite good, although Sir Jackie Stewart won 27 Grands Prix, not 33.

Beltoise Dear Editor, Interesting reading in your April issue about the P201 and Jean-Piere Beltoise’s involvement with BRM. I am, however, vastly surprised at reading comments attributed by the author to Tim Parnell and Tony Southgate about JPB’s “handicap.” Did Parnell and Southgate live in caves, or were they misquoted?...

Coker’s Lines Dear Editor, Your story about the recreated 1953 Austin-Healey 100S Record Car was interesting. The caption notes how “sleek and slippery” the 100’s lines are. The image of the 1954 “Streamliner” also demonstrates the beauty of the design of this Austin-Healey. The story might have included credit for...
