This man is the famous Jean-Marie Dubois, the PR man for Moet Chandon, who died a couple of year ago.

He is the guy who took over from Marcus. Marcus is still very much with us, and I saw him at last year's British GP.This man is the famous Jean-Marie Dubois, the PR man for Moet Chandon, who died a couple of year ago.

Stuart, you have a thread called F1 characters from the 70s/80s. There’s a couple of guys on there to which vague illusions have been made; they are Kenny Syzmanski (spelt wrong probably) and Clive Hicks. Kenny is American, very good friend of Mario Andretti, is/was an airline steward and therefore able to swing flights to and from USA to coincide with GPs where he worked for Lotus as a tyre man. Still working in the States, apparently. Clive was a Norfolk boy, worked for Lotus for ever, most recently seen in A1 GP, I think. Probably still working for one of those teams. The pair were a truly great double act; somewhere I have a pic of them in drag at Monaco. Led by the chaos-maestro of them all, Bob Dance, they would create havoc at the TipTop on Thursday evenings (and others where possible). Kenny and Clive. Legends!
I recall the Tip Top 'drag' incident too (it was 1981), and in all likelihood Bob & I were standing together!
