Intro:

Former F1 driver Alan Jones on the passing of three-time F1 world champion Sir Jack Brabham.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English): Alan Jones, Former Formula 1 Driver:

"He's also been inspiration not only to me but to many other young blokes that have gone over. To pack your bags and to go over to the other side of the earth to a country you've never been too before to pursue your dream or your passion or your chosen occupation is one thing but he proved it could be done."

SOUNDBITE (English): Alan Jones, Former Formula 1 Driver:

"He won a world championship in a car bearing his own name which he built within an Australian engine. That's a remarkable achievement."

SOUNDBITE (English): Alan Jones, Former Formula 1 Driver:

"In this day and age the driver's don't do any work on their own cars but in those days you know Sir Jack would jump out of his car and probably attend to the mechanical side of it himself to a certain degree and jump back in a win a Grand Prix."

SOUNDBITE (English): Alan Jones, Former Formula 1 Driver:

"I think he will be remembered as the man that built his own car, engineered his own car and won a word championship in it. No one did it before him, no one did it since and I don't think it will ever happen again."
