At a time when the subject of one driver coming into physical contract with another is in the news, it is coincidentally sad to record the recent passing of David 'Dave' Morgan, the driver who was famously punched by James Hunt in 1970.
Five years later, Morgan's only venture into F1 would end when a deluge hit the closing laps of the British Grand Prix, Morgan's Surtees TS16 being one of several cars to skate off the road and finish in the catch-fencing. The Englishman had raised enough backing for a single drive that did not do justice to either his talent or a wider and highly regarded association with motor sport.
