Still got the pics when Colin arrived into service at Langley park in the Skoda and I think was leading the event but had some gbox or electrical fault and ran out of time. The look on his face and team was gutt wrenching to say the least. His family was there and the crowd which had gathered showing there support were also gutted and a round of applause went up for a heroic effort. Mechanics and managers from other teams came to the tent to lend support as best they could. You dont get that in F1 or the same access unless your a supermodel or soccer player. RIP Colin
