AUTOSPORT's last interview with Jack Brabham
EDD STRAW revisits a 2009 interview with Sir Jack Brabham at the Australian's home, in which the three-time F1 champion reflected at length on his incredible career
Five years ago I had the privilege of interviewing Jack Brabham at his home on the Gold Coast in the build-up to the Australian Grand Prix.
Then 83, he still cut a formidable figure, meaning even those unaware of his feats in motorsport would be able to detect that this was a man of singular determination and force of will capable of greatness in his pomp.
