Get well Peter

-

As we went to press we heard that gifted rider and engineer Peter Williams had been admitted to Bath hospital. Best known for his long associatio­n with the works Norton team, he played an instrument­al part in the developmen­t of the Commando. Sponsored by John Player, the semi–monocoque framed Norton went on to win the 1973 F750 TT. His racing was cut short after a nasty accident the following year at Oulton Park, but his interest and involvemen­t in motorcycle­s and all things engineerin­g never stopped.

We send get well wishes from everyone at Classic Racer.
