With much sadness we mark the passing of Patrick Tambay at the age of 73. Between the rally raids Patrick took part in ice races, the Tour de Corse for jet skis and became a television commentator. In 1994, in partnership with his friend and business associate Michel Golay in the Fast Group SA company, Patrick took a shareholding in the Larrousse F1 and took an active involvement in the sporting side of the business. At the end of the season, however, Fast Group decided to end its involvement with the team. After, Tambay was a TV commentator while also serving as the deputy-mayor of Le Cannet, a suburb of Cannes.
