Now here's an image to make the modern-day F1 fan weep. This is World Superbike Champion elect Neil Hodgson at Brands Hatch in July 2003. He's just taken part in two WSB rounds on the GP circuit, but failed in his quest to wrap up the title in front of his home crowd.
He's tired, sweaty, hot and rather pissed off. So what does he do? He sits on a paddock scooter for three and a half hours, signing autographs and having his photo taken with all and sundry.
And with a smile on his face the entire time, only refreshed by one baguette and a solitary bottle of beer. As you can hopefully see, the queue was litterally out of sight for most of that period.
I tell you; if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I would never have believed it...

Many great names there Carlos.
I recognize the obvious from the top Graham Hill, Roger Williamson, Chris Amon(?), John Watson,
Peter Revson, George Follmer, Jacky Ickx, Mike Hailwood, James Hunt, Mike Beuttler and Jackie Stewart.
Who are the others?
Personally I was to shy to ask for autographs or even speak to my heroes
which I regret today. I was in the paddock on friday on all the Swedish
Grand Prix from ´73 to ´78. In those days you really had a chance to see
both the cars and the drivers at close quarters and to speak with them.
And I didn´t take it!!

However guilt must have kicked in ....he returned and motioned to me from behind a hoarding and he signed.

Seems to be a habit for him. A few weeks ago, he raced at Zandvoort and a colleague of mine got exactly the same reaction when he wanted to take a photograph of Chris Rea sitting in his car...

Surely not. Bored senseless on a flight earlier today, I was surreptitiously checking the Daily Mail a woman next to me was reading as she flicked through its pages and it said: "If cancer hadn't nearly killed me, I’d be just another selfish celebrity egomaniac, says Chris Rea" (title just checked with dailymail.com or whatever it is...)
