I'm so very unhappy to have to report that Mike Hall - the 'glue' who held Keith Duckworth, Mike Costin and Cosworth together in the 1970s and 1980s - died yesterday.
Among his many achievements was personal responsibility for the Ford-Cosworth BDA engine, and for other notable road car designs including the Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 power unit.
