Supported "Big John" from my early youth & had the good fortune to work with him at the Autosport Show a few years ago. Made my year!!! A true gentleman, a fierce competitor & a man of true principle, long may he continue to grace events such as Goodwood. About time someone made a sensible decision in government & knighted him, long overdue!!
lucky you, respect from belgium,i so hem this year at goodwood, and i liket it very match to see hem,he is a heroo now body wil do bether dan hem i think.
Legendary driver and inspirational person
To see the racing community come together after such a loss is truly humbling, John's shared passion with Henry was inspirational, is inspirational.
Wonderful Gentleman John Surtees ........................held in the highest esteem by everyone
Big man and big Legend of motorsport!
This man has been my racing hero for 46 years. A true champion and gentleman and an inspiration to all.
Lovely video, though obviously very sad. John is a special man.

Can't they do that posthumously? I know they have awarded VCs after battles in which the eventual recipients have died.
