Sad to hear the tragic loss of Sir Jack Brabham a Bathurst motorsport legend. Sir Jack won the Bathurst 100 mile race back in 1960.
Brabham made history in 1966 when he became the only person to win a Formula One drivers championship in a car he designed and built himself, a feat which is unlikely to be repeated.
After retiring in 1970, Brabham became the first motorsport identity to be knighted
In his final years, he battled failing eyesight, problems with his kidneys and liver disease.
