RIP

He certainly has put some great effort into Ford Rallying in the 80's and early 90's. Just got me thinking of Tony Fall, who also died only a few months ago...

I'm surprised that there is no mention on WRC.com about Peter Ashcroft.

I'm surprised that there is no mention on WRC.com about Peter Ashcroft.

Beacause he was in the WRC when it was great, and was about 20 years ago.
