Three years ago, the greatest all-round racing driver we've ever seen passed away: his reputation still unsurpassed, despite never winning the World Championship. In today's Great Read, we go back to 1994 when a 65-year-old Moss sat down to reflect on his achievements and why it would have been detrimental to have won the title.
"My philosophy is that racing is what matters. I remember going to the American Grand Prix when Emerson Fittipaldi was coming up for his world title at Watkins Glen. And he could have won the race. But he didn't. He drove to be fourth. And I thought what a farce that is. To make a championship where the man who is the best — or one hopes is the best — isn't trying to win. It's quite wrong, but you can't stop it."
