By the time this column is read, the second anniversary of the passing of Tom Walkinshaw will have come and gone. In my career, I must have shared more drives with him than any other driver. You could say there were two Tom Walkinshaws. In fact, on reflection, there were probably more than that. If ever you were in trouble, I mean if you had problems like I had when our son was killed, or when I had a “breakdown”…

Percy shared this TWR Silk Cut Jaguar XJR-8LM with Jan Lammers and John Watson at Le Mans in 1997, but Win crashed the car on the Mulsanne.
