I’ve had just four really close friends - among the drivers - in all the years I’ve been racing. Billy Foster, who I knew well for a couple of years, was killed in a NASCAR accident at Riverside in ‘67. Then Lucien Bianchi and I were very close. I always use to stay with him when I came to Europe, and we drove together at Le Mans one year. He was killed there in ‘69 in a testing accident. And the other two were Gunnar Nilsson and Ronnie Peterson. Gunnar’s illness…you just find it hard to accept something like that can happen so quickly to a man so young. You know, teammates aren’t necessarily friends. It happens or it doesn’t. Gunnar was such a loose, extrovert kind of a guy you couldn’t help but get along with him, but Ronnie was different, quiet and reserved. He took more getting to know. I mean, we’d known each other for years, but only when we became teammates did we really become close friends. For all his reserve, he had a really great, dry sense of humour. There’s such a hole in motor racing now, and it’ll never be filled, no question about it.
