Such sad news and a great loss. Alex was a super boss and a great colleague, we had some fun times together, including our trip together visiting garden centres in Germany and happened to end up at the Nurbergring where he wanted to take my new company Volvo around the circuit! Unfortunately, the circuit was closed and my car and we survived! My thoughts are with Carole, Suzi and Richard.

So desperately sad - we all had great times racing in the 1980's and I am so pleased that I was able to spend a day at Wiscombe with Alex recently. What a lovely man.
