It seems that his death may have been due to kidney failure - his last kidney transplant was from his wife in 2005.

I sincerely hope that his passing will be marked with, at the very least, a minute's silence at the Monaco Grand Pricks Procession of Boring Computer Controlled Vehicles on Sunday.

I doubt it.They should make them all drive in reverse to make it a bit more interesting.Usually the driver who hits the first corner in the lead wins the race.
