RIP Bertil Roos

Post by Bobby Doorknobs »

Over two weeks late on this one, but I've just found out that Bertil Roos - whose F1 career consists of a single start for Shadow in his home race in Sweden in 1974 - has passed away on the 31st of March in Pocono, where he set up a racing school back in 1975. He was 72 years old.

Thank you Bertil for starting up your racing school to start the careers of many many drivers. You will be missed.

Bertil Roos set up an amazing racing school, and it was a true honor to be a part of it. he will be missed.
I believe in German BARawnda-Tyrrell-Simca(and it's working)

the only difference between the roman gladiators and racing drivers is that racing drivers sit inside the lion that is trying to kill them.
