The ex-con convicted of tax fraud  ? :shocked:

Aye. He put his hand up to it, served his time and won his first race back. Fair enough? The man's achievements shouldn't be blighted by a bit of bad accountancy..

To be perfectly honest if asked if he were alive or not I'd have guessed no. He didn't do anything much that brought him to TV screens once he retired from racing so it has been an absolute age since I saw the name. I suspect that accounting issue queered the pitch for him costing him dear. Unless he wasn't able to do presenting for some reason.
