It's a bitter pill that families of the best F1 drivers who incidentally died while racing had to swallow

Among the gentle hearts that passed on when racing is Peter Collins who started racing when  he was only 17

The British driver crashed during the 1958 German Grand Prix at the Nürburgring while trying to chase Tony Brooks
