I’m sorry, I don’t know either of them personally, hence my comment that the jury’s out.
If I recall correctly though, there was the occasion that someone’s teammate Rubens B was pushed dangerously close to the wall, and at least one other driver (was it Damon Hill?) was taken out ‘conveniently’, to the perpetrator’s considerable advantage.
For those with long memories....Graham Hill was an ambassador - he had ‘Embassy’ all over his car.
Re charitable giving, don’t forget the widow’s mite - some can afford to donate millions, and make it known.
Sorry, but there’ll never be a consensus on this, let alone complete agreement.
