Racer: The Quiet Life
James Weaver was never one to rush for the spotlight. He did his job - exceptionally well - with very little fanfare. In typical style, he has quietly entered retirement
At Interlagos on Oct. 15, amid the fanfare befitting a seven- time World Champion, Michael Schumacher retired from the sport that had been his life for some three decades.
That same weekend, 10,000 miles north of Sao Paulo at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, in a low-key announcement befitting a man who earned more than 100 wins from Formula Ford and Touring Cars to Group C, Grand-Am and the American Le Mans Series - and did so as a consummate sportsman - James Weaver retired from the sport that had been his life since 1975.
