Jaguar items
Sir, As a confirmed Jaguar fan(atic), I frequently feel Motor Sport does not devote enough space to these fine cars and fails to recognise their superiority over virtually every other…
It’s not often you can get two legends for the price of one: this steering wheel is signed by Sir Stirling Moss and Tony Brooks. The design harks back to the wooden-rimmed steering wheels used in Vanwall racing cars in the 1950s, and in 1957 Moss and Brooks made history by sharing Vanwall VW5 to victory in the British Grand Prix at Aintree. It marked the first F1 World Championship race win for a British-built car, and was the final time a championship GP had been won by two drivers sharing a car. The wheel comes with a display stand and a custom centre boss signed by Moss and Brooks, plus a certificate of authenticity. With stock limited, get your order in quickly to secure a slice of grand prix history.

It’s tough to pick just one Ayrton Senna performance as being his stand-out greatest ever, but the 1988 Japanese Grand Prix has to be near the top of the list. Aboard the McLaren MP4/4, Senna produced one of the all-time great fightbacks to secure the win. He stalled on the grid but managed to bump-start his car and then flew through the field to reel in team-mate Alain Prost, breaking the lap record on his way to victory and the title. This model commemorates those heroics, and even allows you to remove the engine cover to examine the car’s Honda turbo heart.

A break from the usual hefty history books, with a very worthy cause behind it, Drivers on Drivers features some of the sport’s greats speaking openly about their biggest heroes, rivals, team-mates and more. Among the 31 revealing interviews are pieces with Tony Brooks, Paddy Hopkirk and Sir Lewis Hamilton. Plus, all proceeds go to support the Hope for Tomorrow cancer charity.

It’s always refreshing when you get something a bit different from the norm, and Hesketh Racing’s latest addition to its merchandise has clearly been brewing for a while. This classic tulip beer glass has been emblazoned with the Hesketh logo and an image of James Hunt in full flow. Should be complemented with a filling of Silverstone Pit Stop or Brooklands Goldstar.
