I didn't think this would be worth watching, but wow - that was fun!
Wouldn't it be great to have a full day of instruction by a Jackie Stewart (and have someone else pay for it!
20 seconds off my best time; hmmm. It might be worth it.

Winning is not enough
Jackie Stewart's autobiography.
Wow, searched for JS and there is four pages, was not going to got through them all now but I have been reading his book, anyone else read it?
What a guy, lots to thank him for. The criticism he took from some when he was campaigning for safety in F1 may have stopped lesser men.
Much in the book, fascinating.
Apologies if this has been discussed but mention JS to any body without a cursory knowledge of racing and you get "who".
I remember watching him do the color commentary when he covered the Montreal grand prix.
Don't ya wish they had the TV coverage back in the day that we enjoy today, in car footage from then would have been exciting.
Highly recommended reading, ask for it for Christmas.

Fellows,
If you haven't, you must see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgSiK_VarK8. Sir Jackie describing Monaco to Roman Polanski
And I remember him saying, "To drive fast, drive slow."
