(AP photo)Stirling Moss, a daring, speed-loving Englishman regarded as the greatest Formula One driver never to win the world championship, has died. By then, Moss had won 16 of the 66 F1 races he entered and established a reputation as a technically excellent and versatile driver across many racing categories. In 1959, Moss’ car failed during the final race, in Florida, when leading and again in with a chance of the title. “I hope I’ll continue to be described as the greatest driver who never won the world championship, but it doesn’t really matter,” Moss once said.
