I had the privilege of knowing Tom for only a short time; we met at the Red Bull training camp a few years ago where Tom was confident he would be the first Aussie to race. Things didn’t work out for him and he couldn’t fly, but despite being absolutely gutted at his predicament he immediately pitched in, his critiquing and advice was invaluable.
With a bag full of lawyer and sheep jokes, He was the quintessential Aussie.
RIP Tom.
