Oh no - not another Aussie icon. I'm not into motor racing but Peter came across as a really nice bloke, a top guy, a decent human being.
Our condolences go out to those he has left behind and his legion of fans.
May you rest in peace Peter.
Regards
Dennis

This forum is getting morbid..... hopefully it is just bad reporting.
Geez, if I were someone like Allan Border I'd be careful......

Wow. Too weird for words.
2 Aussie icons in one week.
They reckon these things come in threes. Let's hope "they" are wrong.
That's terrible news

Every News link I have tried says 'the server is busy'. Shows how popular Peter was.
