    British motor racing legend Sir Stirling Moss has died at the age of 90 following a long illness.
    He is widely regarded as one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers of all time, even though he did not win the World Championship.
    Moss retired from public life in January 2018 because of ongoing health problems.
    "It was one lap too many, he just closed his eyes," said his wife Lady Moss.

    RIP Stirling<rose>

    He retired from professional snooker in 2001 and for many years was a respected BBC commentator.
    Thorne reached two World Championship quarter-finals during his career and won the 1985 Mercantile Credit Classic.
    He twice reached a world ranking of seven and spent 20 years among the top 32, before moving into a commentary career spanning more than 30 years with BBC, ITV and Sky.

    Met Willy in 70's.Top guy.
