Hunt was involved in a controversial incident with Dave Morgan in a 1970 race at Crystal Palace - Hunt took both cars out of the race and then hit Morgan, which earned him severe official disapproval. What does "hit" mean here - a "late hit" between cars, or a rather personal encounter like the infamous Piquet-Salazar incident? --Matthead 19:29, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Hunt became the epitome of unruly, brilliant, playboy drivers and was celebrated for his English eccentricity. Many later day drivers will be compared with Hunt for their antics, among them Eddie Irvine and Kimi Räikkönen. Räikkönen a playboy driver?

Not in my book either. I've removed the reference to him. Stu ^{’Bout ye!} 11:44, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
