He retired from racing in 1962 after suffering a near fatal crash driving his Lotus during a race. He was in a coma for a month and then became a racing commentator on television. He was very famous in England, known as a gentleman on the track and a playboy when not racing. He was knighted by Prince Charles in 2000.
