Motorists pulled over for showing too much haste could expect to be asked by police: “Who do you think you are? Stirling Moss?” “I felt that it was quite wrong and I went and gave evidence on Mike’s behalf and said no way should he be disqualified,” Moss, who won four races that year to Hawthorn’s one, told Reuters in an interview at his home in 2009.Moss never came as close again but had no regrets.
“I think really in hindsight, I retired too early. I would love to have gone on and had every intention of racing until I was 50 or so,” he said in the 2009 interview.
