la force supreme des mclaren 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 Ove Andersson killed in rally crash Former Toyota team principal Ove Andersson was killed on Wednesday in an accident during a classic rally in South Africa. The Swede, who managed Toyota's European motorsport arm for over 30 years, is believed to have been involved in a head-on collision with a truck during the Milligan classic rally. Andersson oversaw Toyota's Formula One programme when the Japanese manufacturer made its grand prix racing debut in 2002. He left his role as team principal in 2003, becoming an advisor to the team. Andersson was 70. May he rest in eternal peace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bro. 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 He also had a bit to do with Jean Todt in the old days too. He did commentary for a formula one race for ten at the 2004 san Marino Grand prix. And he seemed like a nice and humble man. so Ove rest in peace... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
