RIP Ian Burgess

There has been lots of deaths of former F1 drivers recently. Already seven in 2012, including three in May. Ian Burgess died on May 19th at the age of 81.

He drove a total of 16 Grand Prix's with the best result being 6th place. Unfortunately, that was in the time where only top five got points, so Burgess's point total stands in zero. He drove for Cooper, Lotus and Scirocco.

RIP Ian. :(
The 1990s were better. Fact. And you bloody well know it.

James Hunt: Actually, Murray, one of his wheels has just fallen off...
